Philips Search and
Rescue Trust (PSRT) is a charitable organisation, operating
rescue helicopters throughout the Central North Island.
Philips Search and Rescue Trust relies on support from
principal sponsors and community donations. Special thanks
to Waikato King Country’s principal sponsor, Westpac. This
crucial financial support ensures our rescue helicopters can
continue to bring life-saving equipment, rescue personnel
and trauma-trained medics directly to the patient. For
