Our helicopter is back!
Tuesday, 05 December 2023
G-WLTS is back and you may hear our helicopter in the skies quite a lot over the coming days and nights as our pilots and critical care team undertake their necessary training checks required to return for HEMS missions. We apologise for any inconvenience this causes, especially with night flying, but it is essential for the work we need to carry out.
Our annual mission stats for 2025
Our crew were called to 1,159 missions over the past year – a reminder of the lifesaving difference made possible by public support.
From our airbase in Semington, the helicopter and critical care cars responded to an average of three incidents every day, delivering advanced medical care when every second counted. Speed is the our superpower, with the helicopter able to reach anywhere in Wiltshire and Bath within just 11 minutes.
