North West Air Ambulance Charity


We receive no government funding and are not part of the NHS. We must raise £12 million to remain operational. It’s only thanks to the generosity of people like you that we can continue flying to save lives.
Our three helicopters and four critical care vehicles cover the entire North West region - an area of 5,500 square miles and over 8 million people.
From accidental injuries to severe medical emergencies, our crew of critical care paramedics and consultant-level doctors deliver enhanced pre-hospital care to the most critically ill and injured, and transport patients to the most appropriate hospital to achieve the best outcomes for them.
Our crew provide medical interventions at the scene of an incident which include Rapid Sequence Induction (RSI), administering blood transfusions, analgesia, and many other lifesaving interventions.
