uk_martin 1,606 Posted January 12, 2015 I don't deny the need for an air ambulance where circumstances require it, just perplexed by the inability to get a road ambulance in a reasonable amount of time. It's not like Workington is a little hamlet out in the middle of nowhere. Talking of which it's not a problem that Buxton have ever had either, and that is a track in the middle of nowhere. Are resources in that city really so stretched? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are resources in that city really so stretched? The circumstances behind the 2 medical shortages at Worky have been fully explained, and accepted, whilst you were away on your sabbatical. Looks like you will just have to stay perplexed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skid Sprocket 243 Posted January 13, 2015 Let's make this the most watched Air Ambulance ER in history.Maybe then other producers will think hard about including speedway in their programmes Together we can do this Or maybe a collection from the speedway fraternity, after all the air ambulance is run totally by contributions and money gets noticed.

peatbog 22 Posted January 19, 2015 Or maybe a collection from the speedway fraternity, after all the air ambulance is run totally by contributions and money gets noticed. Hampshire & IOW Air Ambulance have a lottery which costs £4.34 per month by DD. I would think other areas have something similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
