Our mission

Saving lives through rapid medical response

We exist to bridge the gap between emergency and survival. When every second counts, our crews deliver critical care interventions that ground ambulances cannot provide, reaching patients in remote areas and congested urban centers alike.

Give someone a second chance

Each year it costs £20 million to maintain the three aircraft, critical care cars and the provision of a lifesaving service. Each air ambulance mission costs an average of £2,950. Each critical care car mission costs £288 on average. The charity does not receive funding from the Government for its daily missions so relies entirely on the support and generosity of local people and businesses.

“If someone told me what was about to happen to me, I would never have believed them.”

“It was overwhelming to meet the aircrew; it was quite emotional for me and my family to go and say thank you. They were brilliant, as were the hospital team at New Cross Hospital.”
