The Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance Charity

There are times when the hospital must come to the patient. Our Critical Care Team are operational 19 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance provides life-saving, pre-hospital critical care, to patients in need. We are your local air ambulance charity, a vital part of the community and we rely on your support.

Since March 2000, Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance has been there for critically ill and injured people when they need us the most. The enhanced skills of our team, specialist equipment and drugs that we carry, along with the speed of our response, can make the difference between life and death.

Our team bring the hospital to the patient wherever they may be, giving them the best possible chance of survival.

The service we provide is 95% funded by charitable giving; by people like you. Last year, your air ambulance service was tasked to 2,909 incidents; with each mission costing approximately £3,500.
