Our impact so far this year
Thursday, 03 July 2025
The Charity has responded to 607 missions in total, utilising the helicopter on 291 occasions, with 316 missions attended in the critical care cars.
In total, around two-thirds of all missions (65.5%) saw us attend with a critical care doctor on board.
It is part of our long-term strategy to ensure critical care doctors are part of our aircrew as much as possible, as they can carry out much-needed surgical procedures and medical interventions. Mission share with doctors has already risen from 51.1% in 2024.
A total of 177 patients have been transferred to local hospitals by our crew.
Southmead Hospital in Bristol has been our most frequented facility (51 times), followed by the Royal United Hospital in Bath (46) and Great Western Hospital in Swindon (28).
Swindon has accounted for 91 of the missions to date, with Chippenham (56), Trowbridge (46) and Bath (45) also regularly attended.
March 2025 proved to be our busiest ever month on record, as our aircrew with called to 128 incidents across the 31 days – on average more than four missions per day.
We have treated 71 children so far this year and attended 224 incidents at night.
