Aviation Without Borders (AWB) is a UK aviation charity dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance through aviation services irrespective of politics, religion, race or nationality.

AWB was first registered in the UK as a charity in 2006 and has a small office at London Heathrow Airport.

The charity is involved in three main activities:

  1. aircraft operations – humanitarian air transport links with light aircraft in support of other NGOs in developing countries.
  2. national fly kids day – an annual ‘aviation discovery’ day when many hundreds of deserving children throughout the UK are given a flight of their lives.
  3. air Cargo – air cargo shipment of humanitarian supplies mostly for young people.

Like no other UK aviation charity, the organisation is unique in using the talents and skills of the aviation community, and beyond, in such a worthwhile humanitarian manner.
