I have absolutely loved volunteering for East Anglian Air Ambulance! It has really helped build my confidence and improved my general wellbeing. I am so grateful to all of the staff that also support at events, they are so welcoming and have built such an amazing sense of community within the charity. I am currently training to be a CPR trainer in order to deliver CPR training to my school. This is an opportunity that would not be possible without EAAA.
