Incident round up
Many believe the government funds Yorkshire Air Ambulance and that we fall under the NHS. This is untrue; a vital part of Yorkshire Air Ambulance’s operation depends on the generosity of the public and organisations.
If you would like to keep us in the air and saving lives, consider donating today.
We are currently integrating a new system for our team to record call-outs. We are starting to add incident reports again. This may take some time to update, please bear with us. Thank you for your patience.
