    Hi folks
    The local vaping community in Dudley West Midlands have got together and have donated an "ecig kit" a MVP v2 and a Aga T3 attomiser.
    The way this will work is you choose a number 1-50 and pay £5.00 via paypal and once we get the confirmation email, your number is confirmed.The draw will take place live via google + hangout from our vape meet with the actual draw being done by our resident celebrity TVC at 20.00 on the 30th November.
    To join in the fun and support this worthy cause please nip over to http://www.tradeavape.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=28.0

      I will bow out of this one, whilst wishing you immense success - I already pay a monthly subscription to support the London Air Ambulance, who are facing tough times since Virgin withdrew their sponsorship.

      If I were Prime Minister, Air Ambulances would be one of those things that I would make an integral, tax-payer funded part of the NHS.

      I see the work these ladies and gents do on a (sadly) fairly regular basis, and as with their colleagues in the 'land' ambulance service, the fire service and the police, they do a tremendously difficult job - yet they manage to do it extremely well.

      Good luck :)

        Thanks buddy yes they do a very good job I can not understand why they get no public funding TBH the spending cuts should start with the suits in the health service and not on the front line.Same with the police and the fire service and the armed services the guys who actually do the work get shafted.
        I do believe the Scottish air ambulance is fully funded by the Scottish Executive and nhs trusts

          I wish you all the best but, also, support air ambulance and mountain rescue in the Lake District. I've now removed my book from the shops up there and given it free of charge to galleries and craft centres to sell at £1 as a donation to both organisations.
