Cornwall Air Ambulance Responds to Eight Taskings in a Day: Join the Mission to Fund a Second Helicopter

A Surge of Weekend Emergencies

This weekend proved exceptionally demanding for Cornwall Air Ambulance, with the crew responding to eight separate call-outs on Saturday alone. Attending several road traffic collisions and undertaking multiple patient transfers to Derriford Hospital, the team’s rapid response played a vital role in supporting critical incidents across the county.

Half-Term Safety Reminder

As Cornwall welcomes locals and visitors for half term, Cornwall Air Ambulance reminds everyone to stay safe while enjoying the area. The busy roads and bustling tourist spots heighten the risk of accidents, making the service’s presence more crucial than ever.

Support the HELi2 Mission

Cornwall Air Ambulance is asking for support for its #HELi2 mission—a fundraising appeal aiming to bring a second lifesaving helicopter to Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The additional helicopter would ensure more rapid responses and vital coverage for emergencies throughout the region.
