Living in such a rural area, the pressure is on for the local emergency services, Police, Fire and Ambulances have greater distances to cover to get to a location, and even more challenging are locations off the beaten track.
We are lucky to have 3 Air Ambulances in Wales, Helimed 61 pictured above, serves the North Wales area, crewed by members of the Welsh Ambulance Service, they rely soley on charity fundraising and good will by members of the public.
Working on the race circuit, motorbikes and cars going at high speeds, accidents are inevtiable, and as well as the wonderful land crews we also have Helimed 61 visit quite a lot throughout the year, with the location of the circuit, being very close in flight time to the base of the Helicopter, she can be there quite quickly.
This however was taken during a fundraising/publicity effort, one of the pilots actually is also a race driver, and Helimed visited on a Mazda track day alongside a Mazda in the same livery.
Why not show your support also, visit their page, drop them a few quid, our ambulance crews, on air and land, are all heroes!
