Funding Climate Action
At SkyCare Repatriation, we are deeply committed to reducing our environmental impact while providing life-saving air ambulance services across the UK and Europe. As part of our corporate responsibility, we offer you the opportunity to offset the carbon emissions associated with your mission. By choosing to contribute, you’re helping us support vital global initiatives that combat climate change and create a more sustainable world.
Protecting Communities
Air ambulance missions are crucial for transporting critically ill patients quickly and safely. However, aviation is a resource-intensive industry that contributes to carbon emissions.
By Funding Climate Action through your journey, you can make a meaningful contribution to global efforts aimed at reducing greenhouse gases and mitigating the effects of climate change.
Every medical flight is an opportunity to protect not only the life of a patient, but the long-term wellbeing of communities affected by environmental change. Through verified projects such as clean cookstove access, reforestation, and safe water initiatives, your support helps reduce health risks, lower household emissions, and create more resilient communities around the world.
At SkyCare, we believe life-saving transport should also help sustain the planet. By partnering with South Pole, we ensure that your contribution directly supports measurable, high-integrity climate action — helping others thrive in the face of global challenges.
Where Your Contribution Goes
We have partnered with South Pole, a globally recognised organisation that manages over 800 sustainability projects worldwide. Your contribution will directly support our chosen project.
- Clean Water Access: Providing safe drinking water to communities, reducing the need for wood-burning to boil water.
How It Works
- Calculate Emissions: We’ll calculate the carbon emissions for your specific air ambulance mission.
- Choose to Offset: You’ll have the option to contribute to offsetting the calculated emissions as part of your service.
- Support our Project: Your contribution will go directly toward one of South Pole’s projects, making a real difference in the fight against climate change.
Optional, but Encouraged
While offsetting your carbon emissions is entirely optional, we kindly encourage your participation. By doing so, you’re not only supporting a critical environmental cause but also aligning with a growing global movement toward sustainability.
Access to Clean Water for Better Health, Cambodia
In rural Cambodia, a third of the population does not have access to safe drinking water and has no choice but to drink contaminated water from rivers, ponds, and swamps. Inadequate access to microbiologically safe drinking water continuously threatens the health and well-being of more than a billion people. Yet in such cases, decentralised water treatment can be used.
Join Us in Making a Difference
By offsetting the carbon emissions for your air ambulance mission, you’re contributing to a healthier planet for future generations. Together, we can ensure that critical healthcare transport services continue to save lives while taking steps toward environmental responsibility.
If you have any questions or would like to learn more about our carbon offset program, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Thank you for joining us in our mission to create a better world.
Feedback
What our clients say.
Commercial Medical Escort from Boston, MA to London
SkyCare made a complex overseas transfer from Boston to London feel effortless. Craig and Sarah were outstanding — calm, professional, and always in touch. They handled everything, from visas to flight logistics, with genuine care and attention. The costs were very reasonable, but it was their empathy and support for both patient and family that made all the difference. I can’t recommend them enough.
Vietnam to London — Medical Repatriation by SkyCare.
Fantastic professional company. We couldn’t have done this without them. My friend suffered a stroke and was paralysed on the right side. Due to a technicality, his insurance wouldn’t cover repatriation, so we had to go private. If anyone is ever in the same position, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SkyCare. They made a stressful situation feel manageable, and I’m so grateful for their calm, capable support throughout.
France to UK — Ski Injury Repatriation by SkyCare.
Fantastic service. I was repatriated from France after a skiing accident with multiple injuries. We contacted Craig at 4am and by 10pm I was home — ground ambulance, air ambulance, and ground ambulance again. Everything went smoothly with incredible medical care and kindness. After two miserable weeks in hospital, I finally felt safe and supported. I cannot thank SkyCare enough and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
Vietnam to London — Stroke Repatriation by SkyCare.
Amazing team of people. My brother had a stroke in Vietnam and the insurance company were useless. SkyCare guided me through the process, sorted everything out, and got him safely home. The whole team were fantastic, but special thanks to the medical crew — Adam and Sarah — who flew out and did an incredible job. I can’t recommend SkyCare enough for their calm, professional help in such a difficult time.
UK to Malaysia — Long-Haul Medical Repatriation by SkyCare.
If you’re in the UK looking for a repatriation company, I couldn’t recommend SkyCare enough. They arranged medical transport for my dad from London to Kuala Lumpur — a 12-hour flight. From my first message, they responded quickly and handled all documents and approvals efficiently. Huge thanks to Craig for making everything smooth and to Nurse Nav for caring for my dad the whole way home.
Spain to UK — Stroke Repatriation by SkyCare.
SkyCare were brilliant with us, helping to bring my dad home to England after he suffered a stroke in Spain. From the moment we reached out to the day of the repatriation itself, the entire team showed professionalism, compassion, and expertise. We felt fully supported and reassured throughout the process. Thank you to everyone involved — I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SkyCare to anyone in a similar situation.
Las Palmas to UK — Air Ambulance Repatriation by SkyCare.
Thank you to Craig and Ben for organising our return home from Las Palmas. My dad was extremely anxious about the process, but everything ran so smoothly at every stage. Mum is now safe in Maidstone Hospital, and she’s just happy to be somewhere she can easily communicate. The whole experience was calm, compassionate, and professional — we really appreciate everything SkyCare did to make it seamless.
