People in Lichfield and Burntwood are being invited to take take part in a virtual open day with the Midlands Air Ambulance Charity.

The original event on 28th June at the Tatenhill airbase had to be cancelled because of coronavirus.

But the charity is[ pushing ahead with an online version of the popular open day on Facebook](http://facebook.com/MidlandsAirAmbulance).

Among the activities taking place are:

- A virtual tour of the airbase.
- A tour of the helicopter aircraft and rapid response vehicle.
- Q&A interview with the aircrew. Viewers will have the opportunity to ask their own questions in the lead up to the day.
- A short aircrew demonstration of how they tend to an incident scene.

Emma Gray, fundraising and marketing director for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, said:

> “As a number of our popular fundraising events have now been postponed, we are pleased to have found a workaround for our annual airbase open days.  
>  
> “Throughout the pandemic, the demand for our pre-hospital emergency care service has increased by 35%, which is why we are focusing on engaging with our communities online to give them a unique insight in the critical work we do, and to demonstrate their donations are vital in supporting our important lifesaving cause.”
