Welcome to the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance Charity
Air Ambulance answers its first emergency July 1, 2007
The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance Charity was launched in October 2005.
On 1st July 2007, the Air Ambulance became operational and is now flying several missions every day. By June 2008, the Air Ambulance had attended over 700 incidents, many of which saved lives.
The Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance Charity relies entirely on voluntary donations, and for this vital service to succeed, it needs to raise more than £65,000 every month: that's over £2000 every day.
None of us know when we may need its help. Airborne within three minutes of a 999 call, the Air Ambulance can reach most of its operational area within fifteen minutes. It needs an area only half the size of a tennis court to be able to land.
