THE YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE OFFICIAL CHRISTMAS CARD!

This year our friends over at The Yorkshire Air Ambulance asked Bog Books Ltd if we would design their official Christmas Card and obviously we said 'YES! W'ed love to!'. We were very flattered and straight away went about producing a fantastic card for them.

Tim produced a fantastic illustration and Gary & Cheryl-ann designed the card and we were very happy with the final result and so were the YAA! Over the past year we have been helping raise funds for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity with donations from the profits from "Yorkshire Pudding 'n' All That Tripe" and the Bog Books 'Map of Yorkshire'. With the book being all about Yorkshire what better place to donate to than the YAA, they do a marvellous job.

So with the new Christmas card illustrated and designed by the Bog Books team all profits go straight to the charity. Each pack of 10 cards costs £5 and you can buy them directly from the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity www.yaa.org.uk or us here at Bog Books Ltd.

This week we have delivered the second order of 5000 Christmas cards to Abby at The Yorkshire Air Ambulance as the first batch were such a massive hit and have sold out after only a few weeks!!

You can call 01751 475 002 or email Sarah on sales@bogbooksltd.co.uk for more information about the cards.

Here's Gary and Cheryl-ann (plus sleepy cat Delilah) folding and packing some of the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Christmas Cards with a mug of mulled wine and in front of a lovely log fire hidden away from the recent blizzards!! Tim and Sarah did a great job folding and bagging their half too!!

BOG BOOKS VISIT TO YORKSHIRE AIR AMBULANCE HEADQUARTERS

This week the Bog Books Team made a trip over to the new Headquarters for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity at Cayley House, Elland to have a chat with Marketing and Communications Coordinator, Abby McClymont.

What a beautiful drive into the valley where the HQ is situated. The old mill has been restored and modernised subtly and the YAA seem very happy to be there in their new home. One of the first things Abby pointed out to us as we walked through the front door was right above our heads on the ceiling right above the stairwell. A really striking photograph printed onto the tiles above depicting the Air Ambulance in flight, very cool! Fantastic photography adorns the corridoor walls and that of the main meeting room really give a great sense of vibrancy and scale of what they do in the air space of Yorkshire...superb!


Abby and the YAA have been staunch supporters of Bog Books since our launch almost a year ago and many new ideas were discussed so that we could work together to raise even more money for the charity.

One such idea was a Tim Bulmer illustrated and Bog Books designed Christmas card for the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity. We are currently in production of said card and are really excited about launching it very soon.

Over the next few months leading up to Christmas Bog Books are attending a range of Christmas fairs, details of which will appear here shortly so we hope to see you all there!
