Fund missions, save lives
Welcome to the Cornwall Air Ambulance Aircrew Club—a distinguished group of individuals dedicated to ensuring that critical care reaches those in need swiftly and effectively.
By joining this exclusive club, you become an integral part of our lifesaving mission. Committing to fund a mission per year, you can be assured that you are truly making a difference in lives across Cornwall, the Isles of Scilly and beyond.
“Having been heavily involved in the New Heli Appeal, including fundraising and attracting new and high-profile supporters to the charity, I wanted to be the first member of the Aircrew Club to show my long-term commitment to the charity. As a paediatrician with 32 years of experience to date, I know first-hand the dedication that the crew give to their role. By joining this exclusive club, you will be part of a charity that saves lives.”
Dr Ed Abrahamson, Vice President & Aircrew Club Founding Member
£0 a year comes from the government for our services. We rely on your generosity to keep your helicopter in the air.
