If both our helicopters are out on missions and another emergency comes in, we could call upon a helicopter from another charity, for example Cornwall, Dorset and Somerset, Wiltshire, potentially a Police helicopter from the National Police Air Service (NPAS) at Exeter, Bristol or St. Athan in South Wales, or a ‘Search and Rescue’ asset from Newquay or St. Athan.
In a similar way our helicopters support other charities in neighbouring counties when we are closer to an incident for example, or their air ambulance is similarly busy on another mission.
Also, we now have two Critical Care Cars that support our helicopter service. Read more about them.
