Freemasons double-up their support for the Air Ambulances


Recognising the unique and invaluable service that both the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance and also the Great Western Air Ambulance give to the people in Somerset
local Freemasons have presented each of these charitable organisations with another cheque for £4,000.00



Bill Sivewright, CEO of Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance has thanked Somerset Freemasons for their further ‘amazing’ donation and has said:  “Your on-going support of the Air Ambulance is very much appreciated. Please pass on our grateful thanks to all the Somerset Freemasons for their great generosity".

In May 2011 Somerset Freemasons presented both Air Ambulances with a donation of £4,000.00 from The Freemasons Grand Charity. These latest grants are from local Freemasons and demonstrate the high regard and appreciation that Masons throughout the county have for this life-saving service which "takes the hospital to the accident".
