There are many ways you can help to support your local air ambulance. 

There really is something for everyone, whether it's those who enjoy skydives, marathons and mud runs to local community events such as scarecrow festivals, bake sales and ducks races - every penny raised helps to fund our lifesaving service.

Take a look through this page to see how you could get involved. Could you attend an event? Volunteer for us? Or get your business involved?

Remember, we are funded by you, flying for you.

In the business of saving lives...

There are many ways local businesses - big and small - can help support us.

You could choose to join The Business Club, you could become one of our Charity of the Year partners or you could sponsor an event. 

We would also love you to get colleagues together to take part in one of our many fundraising events - your support will make a huge difference to the people we airlift and their families and help us continue to be there for the people who need us most.

Martyn from Bath's story

It's been great to come and meet the Wiltshire Air Ambulance crew.

I know how lucky I’ve been. I’ve been left with reduced sight in my left eye and my left cheek remains numb to this day, but the rest of my body has fully recovered.

Could you join us as a volunteer?

From attending events throughout Wiltshire and Bath to being our mascots, volunteering for us certainly offers variety.

When you join our GroundCrew and donate your time, you will be helping to keep us flying and saving lives. There is no minimum time commitment when you join our GroundCrew!

Sessions can be tailored to engage all ages and meet the needs of community groups, in addition to our school’s programme.
