Cornwall Air Ambulance 20,000 Missions


On the 1st April 1987 CORNWALL’S AIR AMBULANCE took to the skies, this was the first Air Ambulance in the Country and became the model upon which all subsequent units based themselves. It was by the work and dedication of the guys here in Cornwall which made the rest of the UK realise that it was possible for any county to fund and run their own Air Ambulance.

Wherever you are in the UK, an Air Ambulance can reach you if you are in need of urgent attention and a time-critical transfer to hospital under paramedic attention.

For this revolution, we have the ground-breaking work of the UK's First Air Ambulance service to thank, for they showed how it was not only possible, but very much needed in all parts of the country.
