Cornwall Air Ambulance has announced a significant new partnership with Cornerstone, a mobile and digital infrastructure provider. Cornerstone has signed on as a platinum partner, aiming to improve mobile connectivity throughout Cornwall. This collaboration promises to enhance emergency response services across the region, bringing faster, more reliable communication to remote and hard-to-reach areas.

Cornerstone’s Commitment to Connectivity

Cornerstone specialises in high-speed, dependable mobile networks, which play an essential role in emergency response. Through this partnership, Cornerstone will work to extend mobile coverage across Cornwall, ensuring that residents and visitors alike have access to reliable communication when it matters most. Improved mobile connectivity can significantly enhance the efficiency of emergency responses, especially in Cornwall’s coastal and rural areas, where the air ambulance is often dispatched to reach those in need.

Pat Coxen, CEO of Cornerstone, expressed the importance of the collaboration, stating: “It’s an honour to support the Cornwall Air Ambulance Trust. This partnership reinforces our shared commitment to the people and communities of Cornwall. We believe that reliable connectivity can make a difference between life and death, especially in remote areas. CAAT’s lifesaving missions remind us of the crucial role digital infrastructure plays, and we are proud to be part of such impactful work.”

Supporting Critical Care Missions Across Cornwall

Cornwall Air Ambulance, which undertakes over 1,100 missions each year, plays a vital role in providing urgent critical care across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The charity’s teams are often dispatched to remote locations such as beaches and moorlands, where mobile signal can make a crucial difference in directing emergency teams to those in need.

Tim Bunting, Chief Executive of Cornwall Air Ambulance, highlighted the significance of this partnership: “We are delighted to welcome Cornerstone as a partner in our mission to save lives. Connectivity is often an unsung hero in emergency response, but it’s essential in helping us reach people faster and with greater precision. Together with Cornerstone, we can ensure that Cornwall’s residents and visitors alike benefit from robust mobile networks, allowing us to continue our work in the moments that matter most.”

Raising Awareness on the Importance of Connectivity

As part of the partnership, Cornerstone and Cornwall Air Ambulance will engage in community and educational programmes, aiming to raise awareness of the critical role that connectivity plays in emergency situations. By educating the public on how mobile networks support emergency response, the collaboration seeks to showcase how reliable coverage can make a substantial impact on emergency response times and outcomes.
