About Midlands Air Ambulance Charity. Midlands Air Ambulance is the charity responsible for funding and operating three air ambulances and a fleet of critical care cars serving the communities of six Midlands counties: Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands. This constitutes the largest air ambulance operating region in the UK. Since our first mission in 1991, we have responded to more than 72,000 incidents as one of the longest established and busiest air ambulance operators in the UK, airlifting up to 12 people every day, 365 days a year. We do not receive any funding from the Government or NHS for our daily missions, we rely on generous support from the public and local businesses to raise the £1 3-14 million needed to remain operational. Midlands Air Ambulance Charity is an independent charity and healthcare provider that is registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC). The aim of the CQC is to ensure patients can expect to receive the essential standards of quality while being treated by our team in the pre-hospital environment.

  • 🏍️ First Biker on Scene 🏍️ We're offering a practical first aid course designed specifically for motorcyclists. Biking is all about community, but with the love of the open road comes the risks. Unfortunately, our crew responds to a critically injured motorcyclist every four days 😔 Being prepared is crucial. This course equips you with the vital skills to help fellow riders in an emergency. Created by experts (and bikers themselves!), you’ll learn lifesaving techniques and scene management through hands-on training. 💪 Be a lifesaver on the road! 💥 📰 Read more here: https://bit.ly/3YkgpUt 🎟️Book here: https://bit.ly/3U4B6Bl

  • A Big Thank You to Cooper Parry! 👏 At Midlands Air Ambulance Charity, we know how important community and teamwork are. Last week, we had the awesome team from Cooper Parry at our HQ, and we can’t thank them enough for all their hard work! From the moment they arrived, the energy and enthusiasm of the Cooper Parry team were infectious. They jumped right in, helping us with several projects that will really make a difference at our headquarters. Sprucing Up Our Space 🖌️ First up, they helped us paint our fences. This not only brightened up our outdoor area but also made it a more inviting place for everyone. It was fantastic to see everyone working together towards a shared goal! Bringing New Life 🌱 The team also built new potting tables, setting the stage for some exciting new plants. These plants will not only beautify our HQ but also remind us of the growth and support we receive from our community. Learning Lifesaving Skills 🚁 One of the highlights of the day was the CPR training session. It’s so important to equip our supporters with lifesaving skills and having Cooper Parry involved really showed how crucial it is to be prepared for emergencies. Together, we’re building a culture of safety and awareness. Thank You! 🤝 To everyone at Cooper Parry, we’re incredibly grateful for your generosity and hard work. Your commitment to volunteering at our HQ has truly made a difference for our charity and the community we serve. Thank you for your amazing support! ❤️
