What we do

Derbyshire, Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance (DLRAA) provides a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) to the counties of Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland. Our main purpose is to prevent loss of life, relieve sickness and aid recovery to those in need across our entire operating area. We provide an excellent service funded entirely by voluntary donations, driven by first class professionals and supported by an army of fantastic volunteers.
