Stiil at it..

Two people were collecting ( and seemed to be doing quite well) for The Childrens Air Ambulance at our local Morrisons store today. It turns out that they had been there all week. Their promotional display material carries a large picture of of an MD902 with a colour scheme very reminiscent of the GOSH logo/colours.
No registration was visible on the pic, and when questioned, the male collector was unable to provide any firm information.He thought it might have been G-TCAA, but that does not appear in GINFO.
I have found one site which indicates it uses a Cabair S-76 based at Elstree but it is the only entry in the list which does not give an aircraft registration.
Does anyone know if this charity actually operates a helicopter, or have carried out any infant transfers as their collectors and promotional material claim?

I made the store management aware of some of the content of this thread, and was told that the charity was on the list of approved charities complied by the Morrisons head office, so the local management were unable to do anything.
