🚁What We Did Today🚁

Today, Moons visited the North West Air Ambulance base at Barton. It was a real privilege to have a tour of the base and learn more about the incredible, life-saving work this much-needed charity carries out every day. (We even got a sit in this amazing helicopter)
We were also introduced to their beautiful new Memory Wall — a special space created to keep memories flying forever. It offers families and friends a place to share treasured memories and celebrate the lives of loved ones in a lasting and meaningful way. ❤️
