Every step you take helps us bring the emergency room to the patient, delivering urgent critical care to those who need it most – from lifesaving heart surgery to blood transfusions, whenever and wherever we’re called.
And next time you’re out walking and hear a helicopter overhead, look up – it could be us, your local air ambulance, on its way to save a life, all thanks to your support.
We never stop, 24/7, 365 days a year. But we can’t do it without you.

Got a question about Heli Hike in Kent?
Should I fundraise?
Yes, we encourage all our Heli Hikers to raise sponsorship for their walk! Heli Hike is a vital source of income for us, and this year, we’re aiming to raise £24k through our Heli Hikes to help us continue saving lives across Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
Our Events Team will support you every step of the way. Once you sign up, an online fundraising page will be created for you, and you’ll receive a fundraising pack in the post to kick start your efforts. Together, we can make a real difference.
Can I bring my dog?
Absolutely, well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.
What are the routes like? Are they suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs?
We’ve got two fantastic routes for you to choose from, 3-mile or 7.5-miles. Both routes include a few hills.
With regret, due to the nature of the terrain along our routes, they’re not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs. Please contact our Events Team if you’d like to discuss.
Is there car parking avaiable on the day?
Yes, we’ve got plenty of free car parking available close to the start / finish area of your hike
Are there snacks and drinks along the route?
Yes, there’ll be drinks and snacks available at the halfway point along the 7.5 mile and 3 mile routes. We also have various refreshments available for you to purchase at our Family Fun Day at Loseley Park.
Can my friends and family come along to the Family Fun Day?
Yes, absolutely. Tickets are available now here.
Do I get a t-shirt included when I sign up to Heli Hike?
Heli Hike will soon have a fresh new look for this year! While t-shirts aren’t included in your sign-up this year, you can proudly wear your previous Heli Hike t-shirt if you’ve participated before. Plus, our brand-new t-shirt design will soon be available for you to purchase and wear on the day.
