Welcome to the Kent Air Ambulance Service

The Kent Air Ambulance Trust is a registered charity established in 1989 to relieve sick and injured people in South East England and surrounding areas by providing a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) and air ambulance service for the benefit of the community.

Responding swiftly to 999 calls, our air ambulance service can deliver its highly skilled team of Doctors, Paramedics and Nurses to the scene of an accident or medical emergency within minutes.

Flying fast, direct and unhindered at over 150mph the Kent Air Ambulance Service can reach any part of Kent within 15 minutes flying time and can transport patients to the nearest major hospital or specialist unit in a fraction of the time taken by land ambulance.
