We cover six counties within the Midlands; Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, the West Midlands and Worcestershire. With a population of more than six million people and a busy motorway network bringing more people to the region, this constitutes the largest air ambulance operating patch within the UK.

We operate our three helicopters from strategically located airbases, Cosford on the Shropshire / Staffordshire border, Tatenhill airfield in Staffordshire and Strensham Services in Worcestershire. We also operate a fleet of critical care cars across our operating patch. The average time to a patient via air ambulance or critical care car is just ten minutes.

We attend up to 12 patients every single day. The main reasons for call outs include road traffic collisions, cardiac-related incidents, falls, stabbings and sporting injuries including equestrian incidents, but we are also tasked to a whole range of missions where the expertise, advanced clinical skillset, specialist medicines and equipment we bring to the incident scene can make vital the difference to a person’s survival and recovery.
