Proposals approved during 2023 included a review of our ventilators Ilo support a patient's brealhingl, cardiac monrtors Ilo monitor a patient's heart rhythm, monitor blood gases, measure blood pressures and deliver an electric shock lo restart a patient heartl, and mechanical automated cardiopulmonary chest compression devices. Vve are pleased lo report that following 8 thorough clinical ev8luationllrial new ventilators and cardiac monitors have now been purchased, wf(h new mechanical chest compression devices lo follow in 2024.

TA4S clinicians undertook ultrasound la device lo ¢apture live images) courses with East Anglian Air Ambulan in 2022. This initial course provides the foundation to use ultrasound in the pre-hospital setting. These foundations will then be built on by a bespoke course which is to be developed within TAAS and shared across the clinical team. The aim is lo have each CCP signed off lo be compelenl in this skill as we move into 2024. Honorary contracts are now in pla￿ with neighbouring Major Trauma Centres 811owing our clinicians to undergo shifts in different departments and thus continue their professional development. This exposu(e will assist the clinicians with assessments and treatment in the pre-hospital setting. Having knowledge of pathways within hospitals and exemplary care before reaching hospital can only serve patients with better outcomes. Aftercare support is an es$enlial extension of the care TAAS provides,. essentially our care to our patients. their families and loved ones extends beyond the doors of the Emergency Department.

THE AIR AMBULANCE SERVICE (A company limited by guarantee) TRUSTEES, ANNUAL REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 The Childrgn's Air Ambulance Operational Report Following the termination of the helicopter contract by Specialist Aviation Serv￿5 ISASI in September 2021 TAAS worked with Sloane Helicopters Limited to introduce new Aguslaweslland 169 IAW1691 helicopters. The termination was in response to TCAA being asked to pay additional costs, for two aircraft, which would have doubled the monthly expenditure for the remaining four years of the contract. This would have arnounted to more than £16 million additional expenditure. In 2023 TCAA completed 200 critical missions across the country supporting 11 NHS paediatric and neonatal specialist transport teams in their lifesaving work. TCAA has completed 906 missions since services commenced. We onboarded our 111h NHS team during 2023- KIDS (Kids Intensive Care and Decision Support team) based in Birmingharn. The onboafding process is a TCAA Governance key requirement. Jusl over half the missions completed during 2023 carried the patient's parenuguardian on the mission. The inclusion of a 'parent seal. was a deswn essential for the new helicopters. In total TCAA saved a total of over 296.34hrs for our smallest most vulnerable patients compared lo road transfer, and a total of over 694hrs of NHS clinician lime compared to road transfer. Of the 200 missions completed, 78 of those missions ulilised our new incubator transport system. TCA4 designed and delivered 3 incubator transport systems free-of-charge lo the NHS in 2023 gaining a significant amount of media attention. TCAA is the first and onty helicopter provider in England to support the NHS with a helicopter certified incubator transport system. Babies weighing less than 6kg was the largest patient category seen in 2023. In January 2023 TCAA achieved another significant milestone by undertaking its first ECMO {Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation therapy) transfer to help a critically ill young child get to specialist care they urgently needed. ECMO is a relatively rare Ihefftpy, which is similar lo a heart and Sung bypass machine, that delivers a tempofftry means of providing oxygen lo the body when a child's heart andlor lungs are not working effectively. 2nd normal methods of intensive care are failing. TCA4 worked closely with the 'Heart Link ECMO Centre. in Leicester lo design, build and deliver ECMO capability on board ils heli¢oplers, the only operalorlcharity to do so in the UK. 4 patients were transferred on ECMO during 2023. FINANCIAL REVIEW Finanelal Posltlon We receive no government support. We rely solety on donations, I￿aCleS, sponsorship, grants, fundraising events and our retail operations.

We benefitted from an incredible response from our supporters, enabling us lo perform better than antlClP8ted, generating a total £38 million income for the year. being £3.5 million more than the previous year. The sustainability of our income allows us to cope with increasing costs, secure the stability of the charity by moving towards our reserves policy and as always, to ensure the maximisation of funds raised in the operation and running of the Helicopter Emergency Medical Services and The Children's At'r Ambulance.

THE AIR AMBULANCE SERVICE {A Gompany limited by guarantee) INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE AIR AMBULANCE SERVICE {CONTINUED} FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 Auditor* responsibilitles for the audlt of the flnanclal statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assuran￿ about whether the financial statements as 8 whole are free from material misstatement. whether due lo fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, bul is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always delect a material misstalemenl when it exists. Misstatements can arise trom fraud or error and are considered matenal if, individualty or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected lo influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud and non- compliance with laws and regulations are set out below. A fvjrther description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financi81 statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. www.1rc.or .uklauditorsres onsibililies. This description forms part of our auditorfs report. Extent to which the audit was considored capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulaliolls. We identified and assessed the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements from irregularities, whether due to fraud 01 error. and diseussed these between our audit team members. We then designed and performed audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence sufticienl and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks wlhin which the charitable company and group operates, focusing on those laws and regulations that have a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and diselosures in the financial statements. The laws and regulations we considered in this context were the Companies Aet 2006 together with the Charrties SORP IFRS10212019. We assessed the required compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items. In addition, we considered provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements bul compliance with which might be fundamental to the charitable company's and the group's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty. We also considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the charitable company and the group for fraud. The laws and regulations we considered in this context for the UK operations were General Data Protection Regulation IGDPRI, anli-fraud, bribery and corruption legislation, health and safety legislab'on. taxation legislation and employment legislation. Auditing standards limit the required audit procedures lo identify non-complian￿ with these laws and regulations to enquiry of the Trustees and other management and inspe￿10n of regulatory and legal correspondence. rf any. We identified the greatest risk of material impact on the financial statements from irregularities, including fraud, to be within the liming of recognition of legacy income, grant income and the override of controls by management. Our audit procedures to respond lo these risks included enquiries of management about their own identification and assessrnent of the risks of irregularities, sample lesling on the posting of journals, reviewing accounting estirnales for biases, reviewing regulatory correspondence with the Charity Commission, reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance and performing testing over legacies and grant income recognised in the period. Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misslatemenls in the financial stalemenls, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example. the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations {irregularitiesl is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-delection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion. forgery, intentional omissions. misrepresentations. or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. 15

THE AIR AMBULANCE SERVICE (A company limited by guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 Accountlng poll¢les- contlnued Judgements In applyin9 accounting policies and key sources of estlmatlon uncertalnty The charitable company makes estimates and assumptions Con￿rning the future. Management are also required lo exercise judgement in the process of applying the charitsble company's accounting policies. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors. including expectations offulure events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment lo the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees have made the following judgements.. Determine whether leases entered into by the charitable company either as a lessor or a lessee are operating leases or finance leases. The decisions depend on an assessment of whether the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred from the lessor or lessee on a lease-by-lease basis based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, and accordingly whether the lease requires an asset and liability to be recognised in the statement of financial position. Provisions. A provision is recognised when the charitable company has a present legal or conslruclive obligation as a result of a past event for which il is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount Can be reliably estimated. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flow at a rale that reflects the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The group has estimated the anticipated costs of dilapidations across its retail operations based on the age of the lease and fit out costs. Whether a p￿sent obligation is probable or not Tequires judgment. The nature and type of risks for these provisions differ and management's judgement is applied regarding the nature and extent of obligations in deciding rf an oufflow of resources is probable or not. Depreciation and residual values. The Trustees have reviewed the asset lives and associated residual values of all fixed asset classes. and in particular. the useful economic life and residual values of fixtures and fittings. and have concluded that asset lives and residual values are appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on 8 number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological Innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account.
