Royal Flying Doctor Service

Since 1939, the Royal Flying Doctor Service SA/NT (RFDS) has been a lifeline for South Australians and Territorians, delivering world-class emergency aeromedical and primary health care to around 50,000 people every year – one patient every 10 minutes. From life-saving evacuations to fly-in clinics and digital health solutions, the organisation brings essential care to the most isolated corners of the country. The RFDS is a for-purpose organisation and relies on fundraising and donations to bridge the gap in operational funding, and to finance replacement aircraft, medical equipment, and other major capital initiatives.

The RFDS is incredibly grateful to be the charity partner of the 2026 Alice Springs Masters Games and sincerely thanks the organisers, participants and all involved for their generous support.
