Supporters of the Air Ambulance can take part in the Virtual Quiz to help celebrate 13 years of delivering life-saving treatment to the most critically ill and severely injured patients
Use of the RAF Chinook helicopters - each able to carry up to two ventilated patients - will play an important role in helping to bring increased support to patients on the Isle of Wight
Midnight on Wednesday 18th September is the last chance for supporters to sign up online for the first ever Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance (HIOWAA) night-time 5km fun run; Dash in the Dark.
For the first six months of 2019, the life-saving Charity was tasked to 1,075 incidents, compared to 662 missions for the same period in the previous year.
Children and staff at the Isle of Wight pre-school have made a replica model of Helimed56 and have begun collecting their ten pence coins. Schools across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight have raised over £5,000 for the Charity and there is still time to join in and support the life-saving service.
Compared to the year before the number of Isle of Wight patients being airlifted to the mainland for emergency hospital treatment has dropped significantly. OnTheWight has the details.
