With over 20 years' experience in a number of senior marketing and communications roles, Jon joined the charity in May 2022. Jon worked most recently as Head of Marketing and Communications at North Devon Hospice having relocated with his family from the South East where he had previously headed up a large communications team for the NHS, overseeing the communication operations at Watford, St Albans and Hemel Hempstead hospitals. Jon also has a strong fundraising background and is relishing his role of working closely with the air ambulance team who need to raise over £5 million each year.

Jon was attracted to the role at Cornwall Air Ambulance having seen the aircrew in action helping to save lives - but was also drawn to the charity's strong visual identity. When away from the desk, Jon enjoys participating in many sports and makes the most of beach trips and living by the coast with his wife and two daughters.

Cornish born and raised, Sarah trained as a broadcast journalist and spent nine years working for local radio station Pirate FM, so you may have heard her on the airwaves. As a newsreader and the station’s Deputy News Editor she was involved in everything from delivering on air bulletins, to interviewing celebrities and politicians, live reporting on breaking stories and leading the news output through a global pandemic.

Sarah joined Cornwall Air Ambulance in August 2022 ready for a new challenge and is proud to be part of a charity that makes such a difference to the local community.

Outside of work Sarah has a passion for theatre, travel, and is usually taking care of her ex-racehorse.

Chelsea has over 10 years experience in design for web and print, having worked with a variety of businesses in Cornwall and across the UK over a number of years in her freelance career. For the past five employed years she has helped develop a local retail brand reach its potential in the market, through the use of her knowledge and skills in visual communication. From social media graphics to store posters, website design to building signage, her design capabilities are vast and continually deliver a creative edge that she is looking forward to bringing to the charity. As of May 2023 she has stepped away from the secular and into the charity sector to offer up her years of skills and abilities to help further the growth of Cornwall Air Ambulance.

She has a passion to see lives saved, and as she puts it: “I may not be able to fly a helicopter but I can develop a brand image and assets that help deliver the charity's key messages and win those much needed donations to keep the heli in the sky”.

She has lived in Newquay for 14 years and wouldn’t be anywhere else; surfing, snowboarding, skating and exploring the world are just a few keen interests she has, and now with her latest edition to the family ‘Naia’ her little chocolate spoodle.
