Delighted to have visited the East Anglian Air Ambulance at Norwich Airport today. It was hugely inspiring to meet the team behind this award-winning charity providing us with 24/7 trauma care.

It was brilliant to see how the East Anglian Air Ambulance are leading the way in the introduction of new trauma care equipment and practices, and to hear how they are working to ensure that East Anglia receives the high class and leading urgent medical care it deserves.

That being said, in speaking with the team, it was striking to hear about the rise in mental health related call outs. Mental health awareness and support has always been a central campaign for me; however, despite positive momentum in local mental health support, today showed why this campaign must continue.
