Project Wingman


Uniting the aviation community to bring well-being

Project Wingman is a charity founded in direct response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Professor Robert Bor, Captain Dave Fielding and Captain Emma Henderson came together to explore how grounded aircrew could support NHS staff. They put a call out to the airline community with the idea of taking crew into NHS hospitals to look after NHS staff during their breaks in dedicated lounges and thus Project Wingman was born. An incredible 6,500 airline crew offered their time, knowledge and skills to serve and support NHS staff, providing vital well-being and mental health support.
