Our life-saving work is only possible thanks to the generosity of the community. We welcome bequests and donations from organisations looking to make a lasting impact. If you're interested, we’d love to hear from you. For more information, please visit: ci-airsearch.com

At CIAS, every mission is made possible by two things. The time given by our crew of volunteers and the generosity of the public. We’re not state-funded and rely solely on community support and your donations. Please donate to help keep us flying: ci-airsearch.com

How fantastic is this?! 😍

Don't forget this when you do your shopping! #fundraising

We have proudly served the community for over 40 years, providing a rapid-response airborne search and rescue service. Founded in 1980 as a voluntary service, we operate in all weathers, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You can learn more and donate here: ci-airsearch.com

In actual search operations, we are able to fly as low as 100 feet above the sea, enabling us to mark targets accurately with smoke floats. The standard rules of the air do not permit pilots to fly below 500 feet unless they are taking off or landing.

Our missions can stretch up to 3.5 hours of intense searching. But no matter how far we go, we must always land with at least 45 minutes of fuel left on board, where we will switch crews if we need to carry on searching.

Our new LinkedIn page is now live, enabling us to connect with businesses like yours. We’re eager to connect with businesses who care about the community, so if your organisation is looking for a local charity to support, we’d love to hear from you.

I don't have the same problem, but the human volunteers need these safety suits. If you can make a donation, big or small, it would be really appreciated 🐾😘

I love reading about Leo! 🥰

Search and rescue missions around the Channel Islands are never a solo effort. We often work hand-in-hand with the RNLI to cover every angle of a rescue. From the air, we can locate vessels or individuals in trouble, guiding lifeboats to the scene and keeping watch from the sky.

Always a fun evening!
