Saving Lives Through Your Support.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance brings an advanced critical care team to people in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight when they need it most.

Highly skilled crews of Doctors, Paramedics and Pilots can be at the scene of an incident within minutes.

It currently costs in excess of £17,750 a day to maintain our life saving service, and it is only thanks to the generosity of the communities that we serve that we are able keep the Air Ambulance flying and saving lives.

Operation Airbase Appeal

In February 2024, Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance announced ambitious plans to centralise the operating base. Currently, the critical care team operate from the airbase in Thruxton, Andover – in the north west of the county, and the charity team are based in Nursling, Southampton.

The charity aims to move to a site near Southampton Airport, bringing the charity and operation teams together under one roof, and crucially, bringing their life-saving service to the centre of our community.

The charity is now fundraising for £3.6 million to rebuild and equip the site in George Curl Way to make it fit for operational purposes.
