Flying to Save Lives

NW AIr Ambulance Helicopter

Gifts in Wills

One in every five of our lifesaving missions is funded by gifts in Wills.

Write your Will for free and leave a lasting legacy.

Thank you to the crew at the charity for saving my life, with their quick thinking and performance – in what must have been a very high-pressure situation. I was written off all the way but the decisions they made have given me more time with my family and children.
