From attending events throughout Wiltshire and Bath to being our mascots, volunteering for us certainly offers variety.

When you join our GroundCrew and donate your time, you will be helping to keep us flying and saving lives. There is no minimum time commitment when you join our GroundCrew!

On application to join us, you will talk to our dedicated charity team, who will guide you through the different ways you can get involved.

Volunteer stories

Hear stories from our volunteers and why they enjoy it so much!

“For anyone who is considering volunteering, don't just think about it, get on and do it! What else could you do that will give you so much fun, take you places you may not go to otherwise and do your bit to keep the critical service flying, all at the same time? ”
