Paper celebrates air ambulance success

The Melton Times, a Leicestershire weekly that sells 13,000 copies, has managed to raised £12,000 in just six weeks for an air ambulance appeal, exceeding its original £10,000 target with four weeks to spare. Editor Michael Cooke told holdthefrontpage the response was "amazing". He now hopes to raise much more for the campaign to fund the operation of a helicopter from East Midlands airport.
