Devon Air

Devon Air Ambulance delivers time-critical care thanks to your support. But now you can help to support our patients even before we arrive at an incident.

We attend hundreds of patients every year and in 2021, 333 of these were suffering a cardiac arrest - their heart had stopped beating.

In a recent survey, a staggering 67% of those who took part told us that they would like to find out more about using a defibrillator as although they would like to be able to step in and help to save a life, they lacked the confidence to do so because they weren't sure how to use a defibrillator.

In response to this important information we are offering you the chance to boost your confidence with training delivered by our very own Specialist Paramedics in Critical Care at our first set of community defibrillator sessions in 5 locations across Devon.
