Support your local air ambulance Air ambulances carry out a vital life-saving role in the community, however, in the UK they are not government funded and rely on voluntary donations to continue to operate.

We therefore encourage you to support your local air ambulance - you never know when YOU might need their help!
Further details on the UK's air ambulance service and coverage can be seen on the UK Association of Air Ambulances website.
