About us
Who we are
Devon Air Ambulance Trust is a registered charity. Registered Charity No: 1077998.
Our aim is "to relieve sickness and injury in and around the county of Devon through provision of an emergency Air Ambulance Service."
Every year the Charity needs to raise £6.4 million to run the service. In addition, we need to raise around £1m more to build capital funds in order to ensure we can replace our aircraft after ten years’ service and to meet significant maintenance and repair costs plus ambitious plans to extend our operating hours.
