You guys quite likely saved my mums life many years ago, getting her to Southampton so quickly. Thanks to you we still have our amazing mum (and now nanny) in our lives xxx

You guys did a great job on Saturday afternoon. Thank you for such a quick response.

You are so fantastic in all you do to help any one in trouble that is why I support you in your lottery each month and also get donations from Chilworth R C when I make them tea or coffee at shows or championship and then give it to you at the new forest show keep up the good work xx

Well it's nearly been a year since my motorcycle accident in Bentley and I've made a great recovery getting movement back in most places but this was all down to the HAIOWAA such a great team and a fast response in now doing a mud run in aid of these guys who need all the money they can get so please sign up to their lottery

We had an amazing visit to our Cub Pack from Jo. The Cubs loved the informative yet fun night. And Jo was amazing with the Cubs!

There aren't enough words in the dictionary to describe all these guys that fly in the sky's for us in Hampshire keep those air miles going boys one day we will get free fuel for you .love from the Cooksons and of course your shoe fanatic little star Phoebee C

Thank you to the great guys who came to rescue of my dad in need today. Truely upsetting day but thanks to them my dad got to hospital quickly! And flew in his first helicopter!!

Saw your fundraising effort at Sainsbury's in Hedge End today and stuck a couple of quid in the box as well as buying a pin badge. Wish it could be more. You guys do a fantastic job.

Saved my son's life, there are no words to express fully the gratitude I have for this wonderful organisation and the amazing people that work for it, forever in your debt xx

Please don't forget about the fast response car as well, he came to my aid last September. I make donations when I see your collection pots, but I can never pay back what I owe you. Big thanks to the whole team, the ones you see and the ones you dont.

More important than words can describe. And the best run charity of all time

I would like to thank you from.bottom of my heart for looking after my husband graham earl on 22 april 2018 . Sorry exact location unknown. He came home from southampton hospital yesterday . Considering his injuries .

Thank you again

We both know outcome could have been different without your knowledge and skills.



Very grateful and will continue to raise funds for great cause x

I attended a breakfast business meeting this morning at The Royal Exchange pub in Lindford, Hampshire. There was an inspirational guest speaker who had his life saved by the Air Ambulance service after a near fatal RTI. Stories like this make you realise that you never know if you, or one of your loved ones, will need the same support one day. Moreover, I didn't realise that this service is purely funded by donations from the public and businesses and does not receive a penny from the government. Therefore please make a monthly donantion to this truly great service.

Great charity hope I never need the use of there service but I feel that if I ever do I know I will be in very good hands. Had a amazing day riding on the IOW ride4life.

An invaluable service along with all the emergency response services. They all were amazing last Thursday when I came off my bike & impaled myself in the middle of the forest all alone. Can't thank them all enough, grateful doesn't even come close.

Amazing people doing an amazing job Respect to you all x

Air ambulance is the best charity I always support .

After watching the doctors leave Southampton General today Im in total awe that we are in safe hands. My 4 year old son loved watching you take off today from the hospital however I was more concerned that you were attending a serious accident. Hoping that it was just a training exercise. Thank you for all you do and for making my son's day

A massive thank you to Mike and Ewan (and pilot) today for transferring my son Harrison and his mum to Southampton University Hospital from the Isle of Wight. The guys were so compassionate and reassuring and put my 7 month old and mum at ease, despite a very emotional and stress filled day. Thank you again x
