We are a not-for-profit organisation. Supported by the Commonwealth, State and Territory Governments, we also receive generous donations from the community and corporations, find out more about our partners and how you can support us.
Now is the time for the RFDS to focus on the regions that require their charitable support, not commercial contracts that undercut stand alone operators. I served with the Air Ambulance for a number of years, the Victorian contract was for the supply of aircraft and pilots, not medical personnel. Their is an abundance of operators who can supply this to a very high standard, please don't insinuate that this a loss for Victoria because of who they are.
