Overview
Gambling Connection: CORNWALL AIR AMBULANCE TRUST holds a UKGC operator licence, first issued on 19 June 2014, which it uses to run charitable lotteries as a fundraising tool. It's in this database because it's a licensed gambling operator under UK law, despite its primary purpose being an emergency medical charity.
CORNWALL AIR AMBULANCE TRUST was incorporated on 24 November 2009 as a private company limited by guarantee, the standard legal structure for UK charities. It's headquartered in Newquay and exists to fund and operate Cornwall's air ambulance service. The trust holds an A+ company score of 95, reflecting over 16 years of active status, a well-staffed board, and a clean compliance record.
As a guarantee company with an exemption from disclosing persons with significant control, CORNWALL AIR AMBULANCE TRUST follows the governance model typical of charitable organisations. There's no share capital and no individual or corporate PSC registered. The board has remained consistently staffed throughout the trust's life, which contributes to its strong governance score.
The trust's SIC code (82990, business support services) doesn't capture the full picture. Its primary activity is running the air ambulance charity, with the Gambling Commission licence used to operate fundraising lotteries that support that mission.
Governance
CORNWALL AIR AMBULANCE TRUST has a large active board of 9 current directors, all UK residents, consistent with its charitable structure. No individual or corporate PSC is registered. A PSC exemption statement has been in place since November 2016, which is standard for companies of this type. The company secretary role has been held continuously since September 2021.
