Summary
Support our life-saving work by placing and managing collection cans in your local area.Detailed description
Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) saves and improves lives across Scotland, delivering expert paramedic care at the scene of time-critical emergencies. With your help, we can continue fundraising and raising awareness to support our life-saving work.
We are welcoming new collection can volunteers to help us manage our pre-existing locations and find new ones. We have hundreds of cans in cities, rural areas and the islands.
Volunteers select the areas they'd like to support us in. While the role is flexible we ask that you can access a local bank.
We offer initial training and ongoing support. Many bank branch locations have coin counters which make it simple, a few rural locations may require the cans counted. Good numeracy skills are needed in that case.
If you are interested and want to help support our life-saving work follow the link below and Rebecca our Volunteer Coordinator will reach out in a few working days.

Since the service launched in 2013, the charity has responded to over 6,100 time-critical emergencies. As the country’s only charity-funded air ambulance service, SCAA relies entirely on public donations to fuel its life-saving flights that bring help and hope to those suffering serious injury or illness.
An integral part of Scotland’s frontline emergency response network, SCAA can reach 90% of Scotland’s population within 25 minutes, including remote and rural areas that are difficult to access by road, flying expert paramedic care to the scene and providing speedy onward transfer to specialist hospitals.
