Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex (KSS) has announced Chloe Pritchard, 12, from Seaford, East Sussex as the lifesaving charity’s latest Young Ambassador.

Chloe (12) joins her older sister Chanel (17) as a KSS Young Ambassador. In 2018 their grandad sadly passed away following a motorbike crash. KSS were at the scene to help care for him.

Chloe and her family have since become an important part of our KSS family. Chloe has been dedicated to raising funds for KSS and has given many hours to help with bucket collections and raising awareness of the charity in her community.

“It’s been a pleasure to get to know Chloe and her older sister Chanel, who has been a Young Ambassador for the last two years.

“Both Chloe and Chanel have been incredibly supportive of KSS ever since they became aware of our work. Chloe is a wonderful addition to our team of Young Ambassadors.”
