Air Ambulances UK (AAUK) is the national charity supporting the lifesaving work
of the UK’s air ambulance charities, enabling them to save even more lives
every day.
Air ambulance crews bring the Emergency Department to patients who have
suffered a life threatening or life changing trauma or medical emergency;
providing advanced critical care to save lives.
On average an air ambulance can reach someone in urgent need within 15
minutes. Anyone, anywhere in the UK can become a patient at any time. Air
ambulance charities are collectively dispatched to over 100 lifesaving missions
each day across the UK; each mission is funded almost entirely by the
generosity of local communities.
AAUK raises national funds to invest in the air ambulance community
and acts as the one voice on issues of national significance. Our vision is
that together we will ensure the best possible chance of survival and
patient outcome for everyone in need of lifesaving pre-hospital care. We
do this by supporting, championing, and representing the invaluable work of
the air ambulance community at a national level.
