We’ve partnered with Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex (KSS) to launch the KSS Mission badge - an exciting challenge for Brownies, Guides and Rangers. Through fun, hands-on activities, you’ll explore KSS’s lifesaving work and learn essential skills like CPR, defibrillation, and how to respond in an emergency. You’ll also discover how helicopters help save lives and why community support and fundraising are so important to keeping this vital service flying.

The pack is made up of a series of fun and practical KSS ‘missions’, each designed to build confidence and teach lifesaving skills. To complete this pack, you’ll need to do one mission from Section 1, one from Section 3, and then choose any other mission you’d like from the remaining sections. Have fun on your missions!

At KSS, caring goes far beyond the scene of a medical emergency. Through our Patient and Family Aftercare Service, we support former patients, their families, and those whose loved ones have sadly died (bereaved)*. We make sure everyone feels part of our KSS family and know they’re not alone.
Kindness is at the heart of this work. A kind word or action can make a huge difference to someone who is finding things difficult. By taking part in this mission, you’ll be helping to share that same kindness in your unit and in your community.
*We understand bereavement is an emotive word. If you need further support to understand what this is, please ask an adult or visit winstonswish.org
Every year, thousands of people across Kent, Surrey and Sussex face life-threatening medical emergencies. It can happen anywhere: at school, at home, or out in the community. When it does, KSS is there 24/7, 365 days a year, flying specialist doctors and paramedics to the scene. We hope you never need us, but by fundraising you’re helping to keep your local air ambulance flying and giving people their best chance of survival.
