Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA)

SCAA operates as Scotland's charity-funded air ambulance, delivering rapid medical response across the country. Since its 2013 launch, the charity has responded to more than 5,000 emergencies, operating two helicopter air ambulances from bases in Perth and Aberdeen and maintaining a Rapid Response Vehicle at each base. The organization relies on public donations to fund flights that bring paramedic care to the scene and enable onward transfer to specialist hospitals. It forms part of Scotland's front-line emergency response network, coordinating with local services to provide time-critical medical support.

Its services are aimed at individuals across Scotland who suffer serious injury or illness, with on-scene care from paramedics and transfer to specialist hospitals for conditions such as road traffic collisions, industrial and agricultural accidents, strokes, heart attacks, and injuries from sports or leisure activities. The charity relies on donors and partnerships for funding, volunteering, and sponsorship opportunities, and a notable development in January 2025 saw Babcock International Group sign a 10-year aviation contract to continue its role as the charity's aviation partner.
