Summary
A vital air ambulance service, serving thousands across Leicestershire, Derbyshire, and beyond, is set for a major upgrade as its Coventry base prepares to close. A groundbreaking new £14 million headquarters in Catthorpe, Leicestershire, is poised to become a state-of-the-art hub with two helipads, simulation rooms, crew facilities, and even spaces for grieving families. Designed for speed and efficiency, the site’s motorway access could slash emergency response times. With nearly 4,000 callouts last year and a specialized pediatric team, this service can’t afford delays. The charity has raised £300,000 toward its £500,000 first milestone — and now needs public support to secure this lifesaving future.
