The Herts Air Ambulance (part of the Essex & Herts Air Ambulance Trust) is a free, life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Service for critically ill or injured people in Essex, Herts & surrounding areas. It costs in the region of £500k a month to cover all charitable costs and aircraft operations.

Story

This is our 3rd season for charity support and we have chosen a very local charity that we all might need in the future!

In April 2007 Essex and Herts Air Ambulance Trust initiated an independent fundraising plan to help the people of Hertfordshire finance a life-saving Air Ambulance.

In April 2008, thanks to the people of Hertfordshire the Appeal smashed its £250,000 target and plans were put in place to secure a dedicated Air Ambulance helicopter.

The very first Herts Air Ambulance was launched on 5th November 2008!

The aircraft operates 5 days a week and carries an Accident and Emergency qualified Doctor and Paramedic.

It will take ongoing effort to keep the Air Ambulance airborne for the future:-

Maintaining the life-saving helicopter will cost around £130,000 per month to cover all charitable costs and aircraft operations.
