In the last calendar year, the Charity saw record-breaking achievements in the Bath area, responding to more incidents than ever before. More people in the city are choosing to support the lifesaving work of the Charity, whether through individual donations, fundraising events or business partnerships.

The award follows a significant year of transformation, marked by the rebrand to Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance in late 2024 – a move that has helped to deepen the Charity’s identity and truly reflect the work they do in the area.

Adam Baker, deputy director of communications and supporter engagement, said:

“To be recognised as Charity of the Year for 2025 at Radio Bath's inaugural awards is incredibly special. It’s a real testament to the dedication of our crew, staff, volunteers, trustees, ambassadors and every single person connected with the Charity. We’re incredibly grateful.”

Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance Charity was chosen from a shortlist of 20 charities doing exceptional work in the city. The award was collected by corporate fundraiser Imogen Linham and marketing assistant Emily Wells during a celebration at the Bath Pavilion.

A huge thank you to everyone who supports our lifesaving work – we couldn’t do it without you.
