Steve Wilson is alive today because of the kindness of strangers. When he went into cardiac arrest at the swimming pool, the staff at The Hive - Leisure Centre in Ely knew exactly what to do. They started CPR and used a defibrillator, and in those early moments they began Steve’s chain of survival: the vital steps that keep someone alive until expert help arrives.

They kept going until the emergency services and our Anglia Two (Cambridge) crew arrived. Our crew gave Steve advanced care at the scene before accompanying him by land ambulance to hospital for further treatment. His chain of survival didn't end there, as our Aftercare team provided support to Steve, and the people who helped save his life, in the weeks that followed.

With Restart a Heart Day this Friday, there's never been a better time to learn CPR. It could be you who starts someone's chain of survival to help save a life.

Our two H145 aircraft are at the heart of our lifesaving mission – and, thanks to your support, they’re ready to respond 24/7.

Fun fact: Our helicopters are bright yellow because our very first sponsor was The AA! Over the years, we’ve changed aircraft to meet the needs of our patients and communities, but that distinctive colour has remained.

Eight people. One biplane. One unforgettable day. 🛩️💛

On Saturday 27 June, eight incredible supporters of East Anglian Air Ambulance took to the skies above Duxford Imperial War Museum for a fundraising wing walk, strapped to the top of a plane, 1,000 feet in the air.

Among them was Carol, 71, who asked to go first. "If life offers you something, take it up," she says. There was Sarni, who took on the challenge in honour of a close friend whose husband was attended by our crew. And Lauren, one of our own team, who said it was "a truly once-in-a-lifetime experience."

Together they raised an incredible £11,460 for East Anglian Air Ambulance. 💛

"I really was on cloud nine afterwards," says Carol. "It gives me a huge amount of pride."

Some of you may remember this incredible model of our helicopter, which is a beloved feature at our Norwich base, Helimed House. 💛

It recently went away for repairs, and has just been returned by its maker, the incredibly talented Vic O'Brien. Not only has Vic restored it to its former glory, he has also added a critical care car complete with kit bags!

The attention to detail is extraordinary. Thank you so much, Vic. 🚁

Stars over East Anglia: These stunning pictures were taken by Dr Jack Webb during a night tasking.

As autumn arrives and the nights grow longer, our crews continue to fly 24 hours a day but rely more on pieces of kit like our night vision goggles.
