All about us
Based at East Midlands airport, DLRAA attend, on average,
four missions every single day, from road traffic collisions to
house fires; fallen horse riders to industrial
accidents. DLRAA regularly attends any incident that is
life-threatening, where access by land is limited, or where the
patient's quality of life would be affected by undue delay. Our
philosophy is to attend any situation where the patient will
benefit. We have the fastest and most technologically advanced
civilian helicopter available taking our highly trained medical
team to the scene of any incident within minutes, giving our
patients the best possible chance of recovery.
DLRAA's primary response area is the 2,100 square miles of
Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland and we serve in excess of
1.4 million people. We protect our communities from the
sky.
