MISSION REPORT: Last week across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight we responded to 49 emergencies, making it another busy week for our service. We responded to:

23 incidents by air. 🚁
26 incidents by road. 🚗

Thank you for keeping us flying and saving lives. 💚💛

We've responded to 141 emergencies at night so far this year. Did you know, to help us fly in the dark, Helimed56 has a power line detection system and is fitted with a Trakka high intensity searchlight. 🚁🌙

In January, February and March, Saturdays have been out busiest days of the week. We hope you never need us, but if you do, we'll be online and ready to respond across the weekend. 💚🚁🚗

Last month we responded to 19 emergencies in the Portsmouth area. It's your support that helps us on every single one of our missions. 💚🚁

📹 Thank you Ruth for capturing us returning from a call-out.

This #ThankYouThursday we have to say a massive thank you to Dane and Paul. They both took part in the Brighton Marathon at the weekend and between them they have raised an incredible £1,491 for our charity!

Congratulations to you both! Thank you so much for your support. 💚💛
