The Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance (LNAA) provides lifesaving critical care to the communities of Lincolnshire & Nottinghamshire, funded by public donations.

Giving a patient the best chance of survival, our Air Ambulance crew effectively take the A&E department to the scene of the emergency.

We are a friendly, inclusive and dynamic team focussed on ensuring we deliver the best possible service, and the tie that binds us here at LNAA is our set of values – Teamwork. Respect. Innovation. Compassion (TRIC). We display these attributes in the way we interact with the people we come into contact with, from former patients and volunteers, to our supporters and colleagues.

Our Board of Trustees meets at least four times a year. We select all our Trustees based on a skills matrix which reflects good governance and the needs of the Lincs & Notts Air Ambulance. We currently have a Board of nine Trustees who bring expertise in the areas of business development, legal, finance, HR and healthcare. There are three sub-committees of the Board.
