Buckinghamshire charity store celebrates funding more than 200 lifesaving missions

The Children’s Air Ambulance (TCAA) charity boutique store in Princes Risborough is celebrating funding more than 200 lifesaving missions for critically ill babies and children across the UK.

The charity boutique opened its doors on 03 October 2017 and is located in the lovely town of Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire. Over the past seven years the store has generated an incredible £469,356 funding more than 200 lifesaving missions – enabling the charity to continue saving young lives across the UK.

The Children’s Air Ambulance is a charity changing the face of paediatric and neonatal care through the high-speed transfer of critically ill babies and children – flying them from one hospital to another for specialist care via the clinically designed helicopters, which provide a flying intensive care unit for babies and children.

The store has also received 35,292 bags of donated goods but continues to require support from the local community with further donations of new and preloved items, as these provide vital income for the charity.

Store Manager Claire Munday said: “We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last seven years. Without this support we wouldn’t have been able to continue to raise vital funds to support the charity’s lifesaving missions for critically ill babies and children across the UK.”

“We receive no government or National Lottery funding, so we rely on the generous donations from the local community and businesses to keep us saving little lives,” she expressed.
