Your local air ambulance
Wiltshire Air Ambulance attended 45 missions across South West Wiltshire in the first half of 2024.
Covering from Westbury, through Warminster down to Mere, we are there for those who need us most.
Patients from this area are often flown to an array of hospitals in Bristol, as well as the Royal United Hospital in Bath.

Stuart from Westbury's story
Wiltshire Air Ambulance saved my life.
But it's not just my life they saved. It meant I could get married and we have our two beautiful daughters.
After collapsing at home in Westbury, Wiltshire Air Ambulance flew me to Southmead Hospital within 11 minutes. If we’d gone by road it would have taken over an hour to get there and it’s unlikely I’d be telling you this story now.

Supporting the local area
We are there for people across the South West.
Our helicopter and critical care cars attend missions from Bratton to Dilton Marsh, Bishopstrow to Crockerton, West Knoyle to Zeals.
It takes us between three and eight minutes to fly to these areas.

Longleat visits
If you're visiting Longleat, or on holiday at the adjacent Center Parcs complex and in need of emergency care, it's often Wiltshire Air Ambulance that is called.
We have been called to the area several times over the last few years - and they've also supported us in our crew fundraising challenges.
