Matt Perry

Ambassador

Matt is an ex-professional rugby player who competed for Bath Rugby and England.

He became an ambassador in 2018 and helped to raise over £10,000 in memory of his sister Rebecca, who sadly passed away after suffering a cardiac arrest whilst horse riding. The aircrew attended to try and save her.

Matt says: "Wiltshire Air Ambulance is a fantastic charity. Not many people know Wiltshire Air Ambulance is self-funded and I was honoured to come on board as an ambassador to help support it. The professionalism of the team is outstanding. The pilots and paramedics attend so many different accidents and traumas, from road traffic collisions to sporting injuries and catastrophic medical emergencies, such as cardiac arrests, and give the best possible care."

Wiltshire Air Ambulance needs £4.5 million a year to continue its lifesaving service
