Customers at Sainsbury’s in Worthing have raised more than £3,000 for Kent, Surrey & Sussex Air Ambulance in a raffle to win a new convertible Mini Cooper worth £19,000. Staff and volunteers for the charity sold tickets for the draw at the Lyons Farm store last month. These sales combined with donations raised £3,313.58 for the air ambulance, which relies almost entirely on public support. Air ambulance Lottery Manager James Cook said: “Each helicopter callout costs about £2,500 so the fantastic sum raised will effectively fund a potentially life-saving mission.” The draw takes place on March 31 next year.
