An appeal for life experiences to be compiled for a special book has been made ahead of a publication of inspiring real stories being written.
Writer Liza Jones has called on the public across the country to contribute memories of resilience for a new book.
She said: "People can send a story about something that’s happened to them, something that was heart-warming or life changing, or maybe something that they didn’t expect.
"A lot of people have a story to tell.
"Some people are a bit shy or a bit reticent, but in fact, very often those stories will help other people to overcome the hurdles and difficulties that they experience.
"Even if it’s only rough notes, I will help you make it into a story, and I will send it back to you for approval before it gets printed."
Ms Jones volunteers for East Anglian Air Ambulance and plans to donate the profit of the book sales, which will be published later this year, to the charity.
The service is set to lose one of its two air bases, in Cambridge, by 2030 and has launched an £8.2m appeal to relocate and build a new site just outside the city.
The other air base is located at Norwich Airport, and together provide emergency care 24/7 to patients across Norfolk, Suffolk, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire.
She added: "The sort of things I have seen are usually to do with family; the stresses that people are under and when they come out the other side, how things have worked out for them.
"Sometimes, it’s also looking at the way that people have changed for the better."
The deadline for submissions is the June 30 and submission details can be found via https://eaaabook.co.uk/
