Remembering Northern Rescue by leaving a gift in your Will ensures our emergency air ambulance service can continue to be there for people, when it matters most - 24/7, 365 days a year.
A gift in your Will goes towards covering critical operating costs to help our rescue helicopters operate across the communities of Northland, Auckland and the Coromandel. From covering the cost of rescue flights, to training for our pilots and clinicians, to buying crucial medical equipment - your gift will invest in what is most needed to respond to people in a crisis.
Every life saved by Northern Rescue represents someone’s partner, parent,child, friend, or family member in the community we serve. Which means your generous gift, large or small, will have a real life-changing and lasting impact for each and every one of them.
Having a Will is one of the best ways to protect your own loved ones and ensure your wishes for the future are protected too.

Your lawyer will need our charity number and the suggested wording:
“I give to Northern Rescue Helicopter Limited, registered charity CC59462, (x% of my estate/the residue of my estate/a sum of money/or a description of your property or assets or specified gift) for general purposes, from which the receipt from an authorised officer of the organisation shall be full and sufficient discharge to my executors and trustees.”
We’ve partnered with Footprint NZ, who provide FREE online Wills.
