East Cheshire Hospice
East Cheshire Chamber of Commerce Charity of the Year 2026/27

The North West Air Ambulance Charity’s helicopters and critical care vehicles operate 365 days a year. Their highly skilled doctors and critical care paramedics on board provide enhanced pre-hospital care to patients across the entire North West region each year – an area covering 5,500 square miles and over 8 million people. Last year alone, NWAA responded to over 550 missions in Cheshire, an increase of nearly 8% on the year prior.
Just as the many critically ill and injured patients would not have survived without the service the charity provides; the North West Air Ambulance Charity would not be here without the support of its community of fundraisers, businesses and partners.
The charity is not part of the NHS and doesn’t receive any government funding. They rely completely on public and corporate donations to carry on saving lives.
