Life-Saving Work in the Spotlight
Ray Southam, HIOWAA Corporate and Community Fundraiser, said, “We are hugely grateful for this opportunity to reach a wider audience and spread the word about our life-saving work in a new environment.” The charity’s fundraising team will team up with Gunwharf Quays staff all year, staging events to raise much-needed funds.
Herocopter Mascot Steals the Show
The HIOWAA crew recently visited Gunwharf Quays with their popular ‘Herocopter’ mascot. They handed out flags and posed for snaps with excited kids, spreading cheer and awareness.
Colin Wilding, General Manager at Gunwharf Quays, added, “It’s great to be supporting Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance as our chosen charity.”
