Ahmad Tea marked Emergency Services Day in the UK by visiting Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance to gift its crew bespoke brew kits and a year’s supply of tea. The donation was made as a lasting thank-you to the team for the vital, lifesaving support it provides to communities across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight.

During the visit, Ahmad Tea formally presented the donation to the Air Ambulance team at its base in Hampshire. Each specially created kit contained a selection of Ahmad Tea’s finest blends, a reusable mug, and a personal thank-you card.

Beyond the initial gifting, Ahmad Tea will continue to keep the charity’s crew and visitors fuelled throughout the year by supplying tea for its base and crew areas.

The initiative builds on Ahmad Tea’s growing relationship with Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, its official UK charity partner, and reflects the brand’s commitment to supporting the people and organisations making a meaningful difference within its community.

Emergency Services Day is observed annually on the 9th of September, recognising the work of those serving across the NHS, police, fire, ambulance and other emergency services, as well as the volunteers who support them.

Through the initiative, Ahmad Tea provided a gesture of appreciation for those working tirelessly to deliver lifesaving care, while ensuring the Air Ambulance’s crew and visitors can continue to enjoy a comforting cup of tea throughout the year.

Ebraham Afshar, managing director of Ahmad Tea, said, “We are incredibly proud to support Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance and recognise the extraordinary work its team carries out every day. As a Hampshire-based business, it is especially meaningful to support an organisation that provides such a vital service to our local community and does not always get the appreciation it deserves.”

Judith Stephens, supporter engagement officer at Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance, added, “We’re delighted that Ahmad Tea has chosen to support Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance. Their generosity, including providing free tea for our crew and visitors, is such a lovely reflection of the partnership we’re building. We really value the opportunity to work with great local businesses, develop meaningful relationships and create partnerships that can make a lasting difference for the future.”

Throughout 2026, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance has been Ahmad Tea’s official Charity of the Year partner for the UK. The partnership reflects Ahmad Tea’s commitment to supporting its local community and helping the charity continue to provide vital, lifesaving care across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. Through fundraising, donations and ongoing initiatives, Ahmad Tea is supporting the charity’s crew, staff and volunteers while helping to raise awareness of the essential service they deliver. The Emergency Services Day donation builds on this relationship, providing the crew and visitors with a year’s supply of tea as a meaningful gesture of appreciation that extends beyond the day itself.
