Yorkshire Air Ambulance Charity relies on the generosity of individuals and organisations to help save lives across Yorkshire.
Our People
Our two air ambulance helicopters fly daily. One has a crew consisting of a highly trained Pilot, a Critical Care consultant-level Doctor with experience in A&E and an Anaesthesia specialism, and a Critical Care Paramedic, and the other has a crew consisting of a highly trained Pilot and two Critical Care Paramedics.
Together, they form a highly skilled team that responds to over 1,500 incidents, treats over 1,100 patients, and flies over 330 patients to major trauma centres and other hospitals across the county each year.
