Intent: We wished to secure funding in the region of €700-800 per annum for the years 2022 and 2023 to enable the growth of the service whilst still offering significant value for money to the exchequer. The aim of the funds was to support the ongoing provision of the service as it recovered from the challenges that Covid 19 had on its ability to fundraise. The HEMS Air Ambulance service is costing €1.5/1.6M in 2022 &our funding shortfall due to macro economic factors & the war in Ukraine.
