Sarah Pogson is our friendly Merchandise Co-ordinator at Yorkshire Air Ambulance. Sarah is from the charming town of Holmfirth and forms part of our Marketing team. Sarah is responsible for our online shop, ensuring our supporter’s orders are sent out in a timely manner. Sarah also works closely with our fundraising teams, making sure they are well-equipped with the latest YAA merchandise for their stalls and events.

Before becoming an integral part of YAA, Sarah honed her skills in the fundraising and membership department of another charity. Igniting her passion for working within charitable organisations.

When asked about her motivation to join YAA, Sarah’s enthusiasm shines through. She said, “I feel so proud to work for the YAA. It’s a charity that plays such a vital role in saving lives across Yorkshire. I jumped at the chance of being a part of such an incredible team of people; it’s a true privilege!”

When she isn’t working, Sarah immerses herself in her love for the Yorkshire countryside. Riding her horse and walking her dogs are her most cherished activities. Her vibrant social life includes attending gigs and nights out with friends. But when Sarah just fancies a chilled night at home, you’ll likely find her indulging in a bowl of homemade pasta while watching Parks and Recreation, accompanied by a glass of wine.

An interesting fact about Sarah is her dedication to her ex-racehorse, Finley. Over the past three years, she has undertaken the task of retraining Finley, which has not always been a smooth ride, but Sarah considers Finley’s progression one of her greatest privileges and achievements. Hard work truly does pay off!
