Donations pour in to Air Ambulance charity

An appeal by the family of injured Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond has led to a flood of donations to the air ambulance which flew him to hospital - including £50,000 from a single donor.

Hammond's wife said it would be great if people thinking of sending him flowers would make a donation to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance instead. "There's little doubt in my mind that without it, Richard would not be making the excellent progress he is."
A group of motoring enthusiasts set up a web page for online contributions and, so far, over £143,000 has been raised.
