Title: Air Ambulance
Post by: CF-FZG on March 20, 2012, 10:25:04 pm

I don't know if you're aware that the Air Ambulance, which are funded from charitable and other donations, have to pay VAT on their fuel payment, unlike the RNLI which has been exempt from VAT on fuel since 1977.

I'd like to ask that you join over 100,000 people by signing the e-petition at http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/29349 to have this tax removed from their fuel costs (http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/29349 to have this tax removed from their fuel costs).

Thank you for reading,  I'm sure most of you know of someone who's had a need for this service :-))

Mark.

I signed a few days ago and forwarded the link to many others, it only had about 60,000 names then, so it is gaining signatures fast. Alan

I have been one of the lucky people to benefit from the Cleveland air ambulance when I had a heart attack while out fishing,got me to James cook hospital in six minutes instead of thirty minute road trip.
Will be forever grateful to the people who work in this service.
You never know when you will need it so give it all the support you can.
