What is the Helicopter Hero badge?
Our educational badge has been designed to equip children with safety and first-aid techniques whilst also helping them to raise awareness and fundraise for our lifesaving charity.
There are three stages to the badge:
- Mission 1: Learn about a lifesaving skill
- Mission 2: Raise awareness – Gives children the chance to express their creativity by making a poster or writing a short story etcetera.
- Mission 3: Fundraise – You could host a bake sale, complete a sponsored walk, conduct a sponsored silence etcetera.
Once all three elements have been completed, fill in the form below to receive their very own Helicopter Hero badge and certificate.

Why take part?
We believe that by completing the three elements of our educational programme, young people learn valuable lessons in empathy, responsibility and community whilst supporting our vital service.
There are various opportunities throughout that help children to expand their knowledge and confidence in a crisis through learning these lifesaving skills.
We think it is important that these techniques are widely available to everyone in the North West.
With your support, we can continue to save lives across the region. Want to find out more? Follow the link below.
