This longstanding collaboration has seen Gandeys Circus host a series of special fundraising events in support of Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, which relies entirely on public donations to keep its life-saving missions running.

Earlier this year, Gandeys Circus proudly announced that Midlands Air Ambulance Charity would be the chosen charity beneficiary at its carnival shows 2025, in an effort to raise even more funds for this crucial cause.

During performances in Trentham and Merry Hill, Midlands Air Ambulance Charity volunteers were on-site, running bucket collections and engaging with circus-goers about the charity’s incredible work. These efforts—combined with generous donations from ticket sales—have now raised over £10,000, enough to fund three air ambulance missions and three critical care car missions.

Jo Bailey, Events Lead at Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, expressed her appreciation:
“Our longstanding partnership with Gandeys Circus has allowed us to raise vital funds for our charity. We’d like to thank Gandeys Circus and the audiences that have attended performances for helping to raise over £10,000 for us. The funds raised will help make three air ambulance missions and three critical care car missions possible. The Gandeys team are always incredibly welcoming and inventive in their support.”

Robert Price, Director at Gandeys Circus, shared a heartfelt message:
“We’re dedicated to supporting charities here at Gandeys Circus and would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to every audience member, donor, and supporter who has contributed to our fundraising for Midlands Air Ambulance Charity. We’re thrilled to have been able to raise this level of funding to allow the charity to continue its lifesaving work across the Midlands.”

As the circus continues to travel and inspire, the impact of this partnership serves as a reminder that entertainment can do more than wow crowds—it can save lives.
