Thank you to everyone who turned up to support the Air Ambulance pop-up shop at Agard Court last week. Despite it being Varsity day, there was a healthy turn out of students looking for bargains and a total of £327 was raised for this good cause. To put this in context, each Air Ambulance mission used to cost on average £1,500 in aviation fuel but since the conflict in the middle east started the cost of aviation fuel has doubled to £3k per mission. Thank you to everyone who supported the event and the legendary Dave, Hall Support Officer for organising it
