CHARITY SHOP - DEVIZES

Mandy Wood hosted the official opening of the 2nd Wiltshire Air Ambulance Appeal shop in Devizes on May 19th, 2009.

We were all delighted when the new Devizes Town Mayor, Mr John Leighton, cut the ribbon and declared the shop officially open!

Mandy, whose partner is PC Charlie Spedding, a police observer on the helicopter, said: “Last year when there was a threat of us possibly losing the Helicopter I realised the only thing that we didn’t have in Devizes was a shop to support the Wiltshire Air Ambulance. The Air Ambulance is so vital and I knew that by opening a charity shop I would be able to help try and support the Appeal, and raise the much needed funds.”

Mandy lives in Devizes and has 20 years management experience in the hotel and pub industry.  She is really hoping that, with the support of the residents of Devizes, the shop will generate much interest in the work of the Helicopter, and raise awareness about the Appeal.  The shop will sell clothes, shoes, bric a brac and toys and will be open Monday to Saturday.  Mandy will also be a retail outlet for the WAAA merchandise and Christmas cards, as seen on the website.

Congratulations Mandy and THANK YOU for all of your hard work and enthusiasm over the past few months.  Your efforts are much appreciated by everyone at the Appeal.

Anyone who would like to volunteer to help in the shop should contact Mandy on 01380 738054.
