The Merlin golf open day had a charitable element and their suppliers and partners, a.o. Adeon, sponsored the events and raised money for the Wales Air Ambulance Charity. Merlin was very proud to hand over a cheque for £2,500 at the Wales Air Ambulance based in Caernarfon, North Wales.
This is a fantastic response to a great charity; on the day of the presentation the helicopter ambulance was unfortunately called out which is testimony to the need for this service and the valuable work they do. Every mission typically costs £1,500 to put the helicopter in the air and requires annually £6.5 million to run.
Although they were unable to see the helicopter, Biggles was there to accept the cheque.
