The RFDS in WA
Our Latest Campaign
Are you ready for our biggest Flying Doctor Day ever?
Last year, the Royal Flying Doctor Service in Western Australia cared for more than 16,500 patients - our busiest calendar year on record.
This Flying Doctor Day, we’re on a mission to ensure we can continue to deliver the finest medical care to all who live, work and travel around our great state. We are raising funds to fit out two brand new PC-12 aircraft with the vital and specialist aeromedical equipment needed to care for regional WA.
Western Australia, we need your help.
Please support our vital service by making a donation this Flying Doctor Day. And the best part? Every dollar you donate on or before 15 May will be doubled thanks to our Matched Giving Partners until we reach our goal.
Your donation saves lives
In the lead up to 15 May, we will be sharing the stories of three patients - an anthropologist in the Pilbara, a mother in Goldfields and an e-foil surfer in the North West.
All three of these people never thought they would need the Royal Flying Doctor Service in WA.
Meet Adele
“The RFDS doctor saved my life by working out mid flight that I wasn’t suffering from asthma, but I’d had a heart attack.” – Adele
Adele was retrieved while working as an anthropologist in Newman.
Meet Chloe and Henry
“Henry was only 28 weeks and one day, so without the RFDS I think we would have been in quite a lot of trouble.” – Chloe
Chloe was retrieved from Esperance hospital.
Meet Paul
“The flight crew were incredible. Being with them gave me a sense of calm, knowing they’d get me to the care I needed.” – Paul
Paul was retrieved after suffering a heart attack at Broome’s Cable Beach.
