 Peter Parker -  Essex Air Ambulance, W. Bro. Bob Ballantyne                           

Following the talk entitled 'The Essex Air Ambulance' presented by W.Bro. Lee Gillam at the last Essex Masters' Lodge, W. Bro. Bob Ballantyne came back to his Lodge and urged the membership to make a generous donation. During his proposition he gave a précis of the talk and informed the Brethren that he had learned that Saffron Walden is the third most attended area in Essex, for emergencies by the air ambulance. He also advised that a donation of £250.00 would keep the helicopter in the air for approx one hour and potentially save one life. The donation was unanimously approved and a cheque was presented to Peter Parker, one of the Essex Air Ambulance volunteer 'backroom boys'.
