Every day of the year, Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance is helping save more lives. Our critical care paramedics, doctors and pilots attend an average of five rescue missions a day. Within minutes they can be on the ground delivering lifesaving care. The air ambulance gives people the very best chance of survival and recovery. We are supported by a Critical Care Car meaning that we can reach those who need us 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. The charity receives no government funding and we rely entirely on donations to raise the £1,700 we need for each mission. Find out more at theairambulanceservice.org.uk

Devon Air Ambulance Trust is the charity which raises the funds to keep two Air Ambulances in Devon flying. Independent of Government and Lottery funding, every penny of the �4.5 million needed annually comes from the generosity and goodwill of the community, businesses and friends of Devon. Devon is a remote county, with many hard to reach areas, which is where an Air Ambulance comes into its own, being able to fly in a straight line, over traffic jams. In fact 90% of Devon can be reached within 10 minutes, with the rest within 15 minutes. Reassuring should you need emergency medical treatment quickly due to accident or illness.
