A new name, the same expert critical care
Monday, 25 November 2024
As the charity enters its 35th anniversary year, the name has been transformed from Wiltshire Air Ambulance to better reflect the essential work it carries out across the county of Wiltshire and the city of Bath.
The charity has also received a fresh new look and logo to go alongside its rebranded title, making it more accessible for supporters, as well as presenting a better synergy with local businesses.
Chief executive David Philpott said: “As we enter our 35th year, we felt it was only right to have the charity’s name reflect our true operational area.
“It’s important to stress, nothing will change clinically, we will continue to be there for the people of Wiltshire and Bath – just as we have done for the last 34 years. Simply put, we now have a name that truly tells our story.”

With over 100 missions undertaken in Bath during 2024, representing 9% of all emergency call outs, Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance Charity’s importance to the city is greater than ever before.
