£4,000  Yorkshire Air Ambulance  As with all charities, the impact of the pandemic on both YAA activities and fundraising has already been significant.  After a temporary 3-week suspension of service during April, when medical teams were seconded back to the NHS frontline, YAA were quickly responding to 999 calls again across Yorkshire. 
However, with the safety of aircrews and patients in foremost, teams are now trained to respond using full PPE.  This ensures the doctors and advanced trauma paramedics can still safely carry out life-saving emergency procedures when needed.   Also both helicopter cockpits have had to be adapted with a protective plastic screens that shields the pilots as far as possible.

£1,000  Vision Support Harrogate [registered charity] who support and advise those suffering sight loss.  They operate a drop in centre offering activities which help encourage independent living.  They also offer a telephone helpline and befriending service and also home visits   Due to the pandemic the centre has been closed and in anticipation of re-opening following restrictions being eased, VSHD will require PPE.  They are seeking funding to purchase 100 washable face masks.
