We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance, where they will take on the naming rights of the Dorset Senior Trophy for the 2021/22 Season.
We are hoping that through this partnership we can actively support and promote the fantastic work Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance do in our local communities.
Dorset FA’s Marketing Lead Jemma Tewkesbury has this to say: “It’s fantastic to be able to partner with a local charity and not only promote the amazing work they do in the local area, but hopefully help raise the vital funds they need to continue to offer critical care to those in need.
This wouldn’t have been possible without the support from the Dorset FA Board.”
Our Independent Non-Executive Director, Nigel Saxon said: “Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance provides a vital service to our community and we are very pleased to be able to help create awareness of the tireless work they do through this cup competition.”
Emma Jones, Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Fundraising Manager was delighted to receive the news and said: “We are absolutely delighted that Dorset FA have chosen us as their charity this year. With no direct funding from the Government or the National Lottery, we rely on the generosity of the public to help us raise our operational costs of over £5million a year. Partnerships, like this, really do make a difference and we are extremely excited to start our journey together.”
The 3rd round of the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Senior Trophy will take place on Saturday 4th December, with the final scheduled to take place on Thursday 12th May 2022.
