Story

Help us raise vital funds for the Channel Islands Air Search with the Blue Islands Lions' Pride Appeal.

All you have to do is book a return flight from Guernsey or Jersey before the 31 December and £5 will automatically be donated to the appeal.

If you're not flying and wish to donate, or if you are and wish to donate more you can do so on this page.

Be part of our campaign to get the Lions' Pride back in action, supporting all of us.

The Channel Islands Air Search was established 33 years ago and crewed entirely by volunteers who ensure the service is operational 24/7. Each year the costs to keep the Lions’ Pride airborne is around £100,000. In addition to the annual running costs, funds have to be raised for capital items such as engine replacement programmes and other essential equipment.
