Essex & Herts Air Ambulance is a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS); providing a free life-saving service.
About us
Essex & Herts Air Ambulance, unlike NHS emergency services, is a Charity providing a free life-saving Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) for the critically ill and injured of Essex, Hertfordshire and surrounding areas. Specialist Pre-Hospital Care Doctors and Critical Care Paramedics can be rushed to the scene of an incident with life-saving support equipment to deliver advanced clinical care that is normally only found in the Hospital Emergency Department. Once stabilised, the patient will be conveyed by air or land to the most appropriate hospital for their needs. With limited direct funding from the Government or National Lottery we rely solely upon the people and businesses of Essex and Hertfordshire to remain operational and keep saving lives. The Air Ambulances aren't just helicopters; we believe that as the only dedicated Air Ambulance service in Essex and Hertfordshire it is vital that the service brings additional medical care and expertise to the scene.

It was a pleasure to have Mike Adams speak at our You Can staff conference on Monday. We look forward to getting involved with the Purple Tuesday initiative.
Rinse and repeat. Great phrase borrowed from my colleague Tammy Jones. Powerful stories need telling multiple times to truly land. So apologies now if you have heard this from me before. Took my two five year olds to a class friend’s party. Ended up standing around awkwardly as people avoided eye contact. Felt a spare part. Eventually a person comes over and asks if I would like a beer. Material to this tale I said yes. When we sat down I offered to pay. He said it was on his son who had organised the birthday party for his son. He then asked which Grandchild was mine. I pointed to my two daughters. Assumptions. And getting them wrong. Four days later I had a darker tint put in my hair. Assumed people struggled to engage because of my disability. Don’t know what to say so swerve the conversation altogether. The genesis. Or one of them. For Purple Tuesday being born. Reality. I was 20 years older than most in the room so small talk even harder. The Grandad remarked that a percentage of those in the room would be like me in future years. A second time around dad. And statistics will mean it is highly likely some will have acquired a disability. Brilliant to address the staff team at Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT). A small fraction are helicopter crew. But people assume otherwise. Without their dedication. Passion. Conviction. And a sense of purpose the service wouldn’t run. Lived experience was everywhere. The other speakers included a couple who told of their horrific accident. Nearly a year ago. How the service saved their lives. A three car collision had left individuals with acquired impairments. It was the moment the dots between the two organisations were well and truly joined. It was an absolute privilege to have been invited to speak. On the hangar wall. Believe. Inspire. Achieve. Values that are clearly lived by everyone. Every day. And the three words that were echoed all day and that are applicable to any organisation. Trust. Care. Communicate. Rinse and repeat those and you won’t go wrong. Uplifting Friday. #Inspired #Helicopter #AirAmbulance #AcquiredDisabilities #AcquiredImpairment #EHAAT #PurpleTuesday #DisabilityConversation31 #BeASue Image Description: A split visual showing two images side by side, both from the recent Essex and Herts Air Ambulance Conference.

On Friday, Assure Personnel had the pleasure of being invited by Milbank Concrete Products Limited to attend a Charity Golf Day at The Essex Golf and Country Club. The day was a huge success (maybe not so successful golf wise for some of our team, I think we’ll stick to the day job!!), but good fun was had all around and more importantly lots of money raised for Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT) James Robertson Luke Waugh Matthew Pearce Oliver Waters

“Join Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT), where no two days are ever the same”, they said. And boy, were they right! This has been my week: Thursday: fleet photoshoot Friday: playing the role of film crew at the pre-hospital care course simulation day Saturday: flash mob & town takeover to relaunch the lottery And just the week before I took part in clinical research playing a patient with a traumatic brain injury. I’m very lucky to have these opportunities and to work with such talented and dedicated people.

Congratulations to Neil Sperrin, our Technical Director in St Albans, who has completed the incredible Ride Across Britain challenge, cycling from Land’s End to John O’Groats, fundraising along the way for our charity partner Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT). Over 9 days, Neil covered an incredible distance of 980 miles with 800 other riders. And to make it even more impressive, it was Neil’s fourth consecutive year completing the event! The funds he raised will help Essex & Herts Air Ambulance to keep saving lives. The average cost of a mission is £2,800 and it costs £1m every month to keep both helicopters flying and to cover all charitable costs. Congratulating Neil, Lyndsay Wood, Corporate Fundraising Manager at EHAAT said: “congratulations to Neil on his incredible journey from Land's End to John O'Groats! By taking on this challenge, Neil is making a meaningful impact, helping EHAAT to continue its lifesaving work, and to be able to respond to the most life-threatening of missions every single day”.
