The Air Ambulance Service is one of the UK's leading air ambulance charities, delivering life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Services across Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Rutland, Warwickshire and Northamptonshire, while also operating the National Children's Air Ambulance, providing specialist transfers for critically ill babies and children across the UK.
