Hutchinson and Buchanan supports Yorkshire Air Ambulance

An organisation close to our hearts is the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. They’re an independent charity that receives no direct government funding. Instead, they rely on the generosity of people like you and us to help save lives 7 days a week, 365 days a year.

Every donation they receive goes toward life saving rapid response emergency services to 5 million people. Their crews are kept busy responding to around 1,700 incidents every year. That’s five missions every day across Yorkshire.

Thanks to their supporters and amazing team, people who need urgent medical attention have a much higher chance of survival and recovery.

Yorkshire Air Ambulance have plans to improve their service by expanding their fleet to include a 3rd helicopter. This will act as a cover for when one of their two helicopters are down for maintenance. They’re also expanding their operational availability by employing their own technical crew members.

Whenever someone comes to see us at our law offices in North Street, Ripon, about witnessing or notarising a document, we charge a nominal minimum fee (starting at £10 but more if you like).

We put these fees straight into our Yorkshire Air Ambulance donation jar. As soon as it needs emptying, we write a cheque and fire it off to Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

In 2023, we raised them a total of £1,028.25, and we’re always keen to beat that figure each year. So if you need any documents witnessed by a solicitor, and you want to support a great cause, come and see us to make a difference.
