Partnership helps YAA stay airborne

A long-standing partnership is helping a Yorkshire charity continue its lifesaving work by providing “invaluable” storage space for its fundraising efforts.

Yorkshire Air Ambulance (YAA) has extended its collaboration with Armadillo Storage, which has supported the charity for over 12 years by offering complimentary storage at its Sheffield Parkway facility. 

The space serves as a hub for YAA’s South Yorkshire fundraising team, housing essential supplies for events across the region.

The extension comes as YAA marks its 25th anniversary, with demand for its presence at community events growing. 

In 2024 alone, the charity attended 289 events, engaging thousands of supporters.

Helen Berriman, interim regional fundraising manager for YAA, said: "The support from Armadillo Storage has been invaluable to us over the years, and their continued partnership makes a real difference to our fundraising efforts.

“Having a reliable and well-located storage space means our teams can quickly access everything they need for events, ensuring we’re always prepared and ready to engage with the communities we serve. 

“This partnership allows us to direct more of our resources towards our lifesaving missions, ensuring we can reach those in need when they need us most."

Sarah Clements, store manager from Armadillo Storage, added: “We choose to support Yorkshire Air Ambulance because we recognised the essential work they do in the local area. 

“As a charity that relies entirely on donations, we understand how valuable this storage space is to their operations. 

“By providing it free of charge, we can help ensure their funds go directly towards saving lives every day.”
