The Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance (LNAA) is a charity which relies on donations to save lives.

The Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance is one of the UK’s leading Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) Charities, funded purely by the generosity of people like you! We are not part of the NHS and receive no direct government funding. At a time when every second counts, the arrival of our iconic yellow helicopter really can mean the difference between life and death. We transport the equivalent of an A&E department to people suffering from the most serious of illnesses and devastating injuries, providing the best possible treatment as quickly as possible.

🚁 Today's view from the crew.

Patchwork fields, winding country roads and big Lincolnshire skies. Days like this offer a different perspective on the area we cover, stretching for miles in every direction.

What a place to call home. 💛

🧸🚁 Crew Show & Tell: Paediatric Care

Did you know that children require specialist equipment and treatment that is carefully adapted to their age, size and weight?

During October’s Crew Show & Tell, our charity team learned more about how our clinicians assess and treat young patients. From smaller airway equipment and monitoring devices to paediatric drug dosing guides, every detail is designed to help our crews deliver the safest and most effective care possible.

Children aren't just small adults, and when they need our help, our crew's specialist skills, knowledge and equipment can make all the difference.

A huge thank you to our clinical team for another fascinating insight into the advanced critical care delivered across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire every day.

From specialist equipment to age-specific medication calculations, caring for children requires additional expertise and preparation. Thanks to your support, our crews have the tools and training they need to deliver life-saving care whenever it's needed. 💛🚁

💛 £108,000 raised. One incredible community.

A huge thank you to everyone who supported this year's Rotors & Wings Lunch, which has raised an outstanding £108,000 for the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance's Mission 2 Possible Appeal. Nearly 500 guests came together at the Lincolnshire Showground to help bring us one step closer to funding a second lifesaving helicopter.

From our dedicated LAACA committee and event sponsors to those who donated auction prizes, volunteered, attended and bid so generously, this success belongs to you.

Every pound raised will help us reach more patients, reduce missed call-outs and give more people the best possible chance of survival when they need us most. 🚁💛

🌈 Sometimes, after the darkest clouds, something beautiful appears.

This stunning rainbow was captured above our helicopter as our crew continued to serve our communities across Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire.

Moments like these remind us that hope can appear when it's needed most. 💛

As another weekend comes to a close, we'd like to thank every supporter, volunteer, lottery player and fundraiser who helps keep us flying. Your kindness makes a lifesaving difference every single day.

Have a lovely Sunday evening. 🚁
