The Association of Air Ambulances sets itself up as the 'go to' organisation for UK air ambulances.
This relatively small but important charity handling the affairs of nearly all the high value air ambulance charities [those who collect millions in charity funds every year] and have made a great thing out of handing out buckets of government money from the Libor funds to fellow air ambulances [and taking a little off the top [or bottom] for itself does not think that the sudden departure of the Chair and then the CEO in recent days are important?
There was no public announcement on the resignation of the Chair Hanna Sebright in early January and no intention to issue a public message on the sudden departure of Clive Dickin CEO this week. In the case of the former departure I guess that was Clive Dickin's decision. The rest of the board decided on 'no release' this week.
In each case messages were quietly sent to the AAA membership on both items and the one on Clive departing this week happened to come my way.
Apparently the vacancies will be filled at the AGM at the end of March.
