future of saving lives…
Lighter bodies and better engines help make this ambulance incredibly fuel efficient – reducing CO2 emissions by 24% and nitrous oxide emissions by 84%. And because they’re also made of 99% recyclable materials, these new vehicles are our greenest ambulance ever.
All of our new ambulances are equipped with a specialist lifting cushion. It’s designed to safely and carefully lift anyone who has fallen over.
Our crew uses this when a patient is unable to walk up or down stairs. Plus, the power chair can be used to lift a patient who does not need to be on a stretcher into the ambulance.
Did you know we’ve been volunteering in NHS hospitals since 2020, and our work has been called the best in class?
Since the start of the pandemic, our crews have spent over 100,000 hours helping people across the UK.
Our lifting cushions have a maximum patient weight of 70 stone, meaning they work for everyone.
This new piece of equipment allows us to immobilise a patient who may have a spinal injury – with much greater protection than historic methods – and it’s more comfortable, too.
