Magpas Air Ambulance operates 24/7 and answers, on average, four calls for help a day, treating around 900 patients in life-threatening emergencies every year. The team is dispatched by both the East of England and the East Midlands Ambulance Service Trusts, caring for a population of over 10 million.
