AGS Airports led consortium, of 16 partners, to develop UK's first medical delivery drone network.
About us
Welcome to the LinkedIn page for Project CAELUS (Care & Equity - Logistics UAS Scotland). Project CAELUS is a consortium that will develop and trial what will be the UK’s first national distribution network to use drones to transport essential medicines, blood, organs and other medical supplies throughout Scotland. CAELUS (Care & Equity – Healthcare Logistics UAS Scotland), secured £10.1 million funding from the Future Flight Challenge at UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) in 2022. It is the second successful round of funding for the CAELUS consortium which brings together 16 partners including AGS Airports, the University of Strathclyde, NATS and NHS Scotland. Since securing £1.5 million in January 2020, the CAELUS consortium has designed drone landing stations for NHS sites across Scotland and developed a virtual model (digital twin) of the proposed delivery network which connects hospitals, pathology laboratories, distribution centres and GP surgeries across Scotland. NHS Scotland has said it will bring its “Once for Scotland” approach to the project, the second phase of which will involve live flight trials and removing remaining barriers to safely using drones at scale within Scotland’s airspace. The CAELUS consortium comprises of the following entities : AGS Airports Limited ANRA Technologies UK Arup Atkins Cellnex UK Commonplace Digital Connected Places Catapult DGP Intelsius Dronamics NATS NHS Scotland Plane Finder Skyports The Drone Office Trax International University of Strathclyde Our website provides some background to the partner involved and can be visited by either clicking on the Visit Website button above or by visiting the following URL : www.projectcaelus.co.uk Should you wish to contact a member of the project team then please e-mail : projectcaelus@agsairports.co.uk

Day 2 of Farnborough International Airshow and we’re at the AtkinsRéalis chalet where our CEO Duncan Walker is talking about our work on the UK Research and Innovation Future Flight Challenge. Sharing an overview of our infrastructure work and Project CAELUS medical drone delivery consortium, Duncan highlighted the learnings and milestones we’ve achieved - as well as those we are currently working toward. Talking about the objectives of the programme and the benefits it brings to UK future of flight, he said: “What we’re trying to do here is build relationships with ecosystem and government partners to establish the UK as a destination for aviation innovation and investment.” Thanks to the AtkinsRéalis team for hosting this celebration of UK future of flight projects. #FIA2024 #aviation #UKRI #AAM #drones

SAS is set to carry out vital research with members of the public this month to test how drones can be used in response to cardiac arrests as part of Project CAELUS. https://lnkd.in/ethsiyBn CAELUS, funded by Innovate UK, is a group of organisations aiming to develop the UK’s first drone enabled medical logistics network. SAS, a key partner, will explore bystander interaction with a drone and the protocols required to support call handlers in navigating bystanders to a drone during simulated scenarios. Working with our partners Skyports Drone Services and collaborating with St Johns Scotland, SAS have prepared the following video detailing how drones could potentially be used in the future. A massive thank you to The Coo Shed for being such a wonderful host! Find out more here: www.scottishambulance.com

Delighted to have had the opportunity to take part in this very informative and enjoyable workshop and to share Arup's work on drone noise, particularly relating to Project CAELUS. Thank you Paul Cureton and Dr Anna Jackman for inviting me to join and for organising a great session. Look forward to continuing the conversations!
Director of The School of Design, Director of Post-Graduate Research, Imagination Lancaster, LICA. FRSA.
We held a strong interdisciplinary workshop by Dr Anna Jackman and myself at Imagination Lancaster today as part of our ‘Urban life and design in the drone age’ research project, we had fascinating discussions about drones, planning and the built environment across a range of perspectives. Great demonstrators from David Hiller, Arup, international perspectives from Stephanie Chaltiel Reed, MuDD Architects and Saúl Ajuria Fernández, @on-a, Alper Celik aerospace engineering, and digital planning from Alexander Wilson amongst many other fantastic researchers! Lots of data to take forward. #droneinfrastructure #urbanplanning #futureflight
