THE PLUG has been pulled on a fundraising event for Wiltshire Air Ambulance due to a lack of ticket sales.

Because of the poor response, the jazz night hosted by Wiltshire actor George Baker has been cancelled.

The evening was being organised by Devizes resident Pam Chivers Trevett to say thank you after being rescued by the ambulance.

It was due to be held at Devizes town hall tomorrow.

Pam said: "It's very disappointing, but the ambulance will still benefit from the gifts donated to a charity auction.

"I have passed them on to the annual ball at the Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester, which is supporting the charity."
