Welcome
Welcome to the Homepage of the German-Danish Cross-Border Air Rescue project.
This pilot project is the first cross-border cooperative initiative between Germany and Denmark in the field of airborne rescue. Its aim is to establish an economically workable and long-lasting air rescue service in the German-Danish border region.
The German-Danish Cross-Border Air Rescue Service is a reliable and fast emergency resource for citizens on both sides of the border. In Denmark this is the first time that an air rescue service of this kind has become available.
The main partners in the project are: on the German side, the DRF (German Air Rescue) and the administrative district Nordfriesland , and on the Danish side, the rescue service operator FALCK and the region Syddanmark (until 2006: administrative district Sønderjyllands amt). In addition there are other partners from the areas of health services and politics.
This project is part-financed by the European Union
(European Regional Development Fund)
within the INTERREG III A Sønderjylland-Schleswig programme.
