The meeting on Tuesday October 8th included a talk given by a speaker from the Great Western Air Ambulance Charity on “An insight into the workings of GWAAC”. It was a really absorbing and informative insight into a life saving service.
The GWAAC charities website describes the services they give:
We provide emergency care to people who are in a state so critical that they require the specialist skills of our team at the scene of the accident or medical incident. Though we are part of the regional 999 response service and work closely with NHS hospitals, we are a charity entirely funded by local people just like you.
GWAAC saves lives across Bristol, Bath and North East Somerset, South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire, North Somerset and parts of Wiltshire.
