This year, the Royal Flying Doctor Service WA is on a mission to raise $1.6 million by Thursday 14 May. These funds will directly support 274 aviation, clinical and ground crew, enabling them to complete 4,442 hours of essential training to operate the new PC-12 PRO aircraft joining the fleet.

Every dollar donated on or before 14 May will be DOUBLED thanks to generous matched giving partners โ€” meaning your support will have TWICE the impact.

Why does it matter?
In 2025 alone, RFDS retrieved an average of 29 patients every day across Western Australia, flying more than 9 million kilometres to deliver urgent care.

Closer to home in the Midwest:
โ€ข 1,866 patients retrieved in the past year
โ€ข Around 5 patients transferred every day
โ€ข Including 166 children under the age of 15

Their work is vital in keeping regional and remote communities connected to life-saving care. ๐Ÿ’™

Be part of something that truly makes a difference.
