Since the charity’s first operational flight in 2003 our dedicated crews have attended nearly 45,000 potentially life-saving missions.
 
Every day our charity is tasked with a unique set of missions which we respond to with our fantastic services, all of which are funded entirely by voluntary donations, trading and fundraising activities we undertake.  This ethos remains at our core; we are here to work alongside and help the NHS without using their available funds.  The impact we make with our services is to keep people alive, keep families together, to let children grow into adults and to enable the NHS to carry out more work than they would have been able to without our support.
 
We also impact our communities by creating jobs, taking actions to improve the environment, bringing people together as volunteers and creating worthwhile training and experience opportunities.
 
The Charity leads the way in the delivery of critical care and inter-hospital transfers, but the hard work is never over. To provide essential support to the NHS and our communities, the organisation is currently implementing its latest five-year strategy designed to continually advance response and critical care services to patients
 
Our work is only made possible by the wonderful support and generosity of the public, together with the dedication, skill and enthusiasm of staff and volunteers in all areas of operation.  This support enables us to invest into our operational services, into developing staff and volunteers and into our future financial stability to protect the services needed now and in the future.
