This year, Aviation Action has teamed up with EASA and AIRDAT to raise funds to develop the Aviation Action app. Our free-to-use app provides mental health and wellbeing support through a range of services for people working in the aviation industry.
This year's campaign will focus on further developing phase two of the new Aviation Action app, more details on that below.
We're inviting you, your friends, family and colleagues to get involved in #RTR2024 to virtually run 31 runways in 31 days across Europe and the UK:
● Walk, jog or run at your pace
● Participate from your own home
● Join our Facebook community
● Get your Run The Runways 2024 t-shirt
What your money will be used for:
Launched earlier this year, Aviation Action has been working with Mentor 360 to develop an app that provides instant access to advice on mental health, performance, wellbeing, nutrition and much more. The app has been specifically designed to help people better face the obstacles in their lives.
The app is compliant with NHS Information Governance requirements (DTAC and DCB0129 clinical risk management) and all our content is overseen by an external clinical safety officer.
We want to make sure that everyone in the aviation family can access the Aviation Action app resources for free, which is why we need you for Run the Runways 2024!
Furthermore, Aviation Action plans to train 5 dedicated Aviation Peer to Peer Supporters in 2024 to ensure that there is an increase in the level of face-to-face support and awareness within the aviation community. These peer to peer supporters will be trained in Mental Health First Aid, Suicide Awareness and Safeguarding as well as other necessary training to ensure that they are not only given the tools to support their aviation colleagues, but also have the infrastructure in place to seek support themselves to fulfill their role should they need it.
