The Great North Air Ambulance Service (GNAAS) rescues hundreds of severely injured or ill patients every year throughout the North East, North Yorkshire, Cumbria and the Isle of Man.Their doctor-led critical care teams deliver life-saving treatments at the scene of the incident, whether that is on a fell top, a roadside or in a city centre.The charity responds to an average of five call-outs every day via its helicopter and emergency response vehicles, where they perform treatments and procedures which can mean the difference between life and death.This lifesaving service costs more than £8m million a year and is entirely charity-funded. Their work would not be possible without the generous support of the public.
