Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) are deeply saddened following the news of our Chairman, John Bullough MBE’s, sudden passing.

Vice chair Mike Beale said Mr Bullough had been involved with SCAA from inception and, together with his fellow co-founders, saw the charity grow into a major and integral part of the country’s emergency services network.

“His brand of enthusiasm for fundraising was to be admired,” he said, “and over the 10-year history of SCAA he saw over £50 million raised, crews responding to nearly 5,000 call outs and thousands of lives saved or impacted upon.

“John will be sadly missed by everyone at SCAA and our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.”
