TICKETS are now on sale for this year's Midlands Air Ambulance Recognition Awards and Charity Ball.

On Friday, June 20, at Edgbaston Stadium, the charity's unsung heroes, including people nominated from Worcestershire as well as the rest of the Midlands, will be celebrated and money will be raised to keep the charity saving lives.

Jason Levy, fundraising and marketing director for the charity, said: “Not only is it a wonderful excuse for a really great night out, but it also recognises some of the incredible people who make a difference to our service - our paramedics and doctors, our fundraisers and volunteers and of course, our courageous patients.

"I guarantee there will be laughter and tears on the night and I do hope you can join us on this very special occasion.”

Tickets cost £75 each or £750 for a table of 10 and include a drinks reception, live music, watching the arrival of three of the service's helicopters, and a four-course meal, followed by a casino, auction, raffle and live entertainment.
