REPRESENTATIVES of Tadcaster Carnival Committee and Heineken UK were visited by fundraisers from Yorkshire Air Ambulance.

Martin Kochle, from Heineken UK, presented a cheque for £600 from the proceeds of the sale of Tadcaster Carnival Ale brewed especially by Heineken for this year's event.

Sharon Conway (2014 Carnival Parade organiser) said: "Neil Davis Concrete kindly donated a vehicle for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance float in the 2014 Parade, which was spectacularly transformed into a helicopter."

"When Heineken UK asked us about a worthy recipient for the proceeds from Tadcaster Carnival Ale, we had no hesitation in putting forward Yorkshire Air Ambulance"

Peter Bradshaw, from Neil Davis Concrete, and Bob Bainbridge, from YAA, expressed their thanks.
