Kent Air Ambulance Trust Testimonials

Lettie was involved in a horse riding accident in Thurnham near Maidstone last year, the Kent Air Ambulance got to the scene in just 9 minutes and fearing she may have fractured her pelvis then airlifted her to the Maidstone Hospital. She is now determined to pursue a career as a paramedic or an Accident and Emergency Doctor.

She says "I want to give something back because they helped me. I just want to thank them for what they did."

"The service is really important because it can get to serious emergencies really quickly".

Sophie was invlolved in a horse riding accident in Harrietsham near Maidstone a few years ago. The Kent Air Ambulance arrived quickly at the scene and flew her to the Maidstone Hospital.

She said "I knew the Air Ambulance would be fast but not that fast. It can be the difference between life and death".

"It does such a good job, especially for people like me who are often somewhere a land ambulance can't get to".

Sophie was fine and allowed back home later that day.
