London’s Air Ambulance Charity
We are a charity that delivers an advanced trauma team to London’s most critically injured patients. Using a helicopter from 08:00 to sunset and rapid response cars at night or in adverse weather situations, London’s Air Ambulance brings the hospital to the patient when time is critical.
Our life-saving work is featured in the Netflix series 'Critical: Between Life and Death', offering a behind-the-scenes look at how our team responds when every second counts.
A legacy of service. A future of innovation.
Our vision is to bring hope to every one of our patients across London, when they need us most, where they need us most.
With over 50,000 patients treated and a history of life-saving firsts, we’ve been shaping the future of pre-hospital care for over 35 years. None of it would be possible without the generosity of those who support us.
This October, Free Wills Month is a chance to reflect on the legacy you want to leave. Whether it’s something you’ve just started thinking about or something you’ve been considering for a while, a gift of any size can help power our service.
Events and fundraising
Whether you want to run, cycle, abseil or take part in another personal challenge to raise money, we would love for you to get involved and help us treat an average of five patients every day.
Christmas Carols
Get into the festive spirit by joining us at the Mayor of Kensington and Chelsea’s Christmas Carol Service this December. Experience a heart-warming evening filled with uplifting carols, thoughtful readings and reflections as we come together in celebration of community and goodwill.
