SCAA

At a future Monthly Meeting we will learn from Volunteer, Andy Stewart, about Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) and their work saving lives across Scotland every day. A patient’s chance of survival and full recovery are greatly increased if they receive the right medical care within the first hour. Operating two helicopters, SCAA can be airborne within five minutes of receiving an emergency call and can reach 90% of Scotland’s population within 25 minutes. Working in partnership with the Scottish Ambulance Service, SCAA is an integral part of Scotland’s frontline emergency response network, responding to trauma incidents and medical emergencies across the country, covering an area of more than 30,000 square miles. As Scotland’s only charity air ambulance, SCAA is funded by the people of Scotland, primarily through donations, fundraising, events and their life-saving lottery.
