I've always had an interest in Air Ambulance operations, mostly on the aviation side. I had some free time in the summer of 2012, and thought it would be nice to help a charity that provides an extremely beneficial service to those in London who may require it.
The Institute of Pre-Hospital Care at London’s Air Ambulance (“The Institute”), and Queen Mary University of London’s Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry (“QMUL”) have partnered to create the UK’s first Intercalated BSc degree in Pre-Hospital Medicine. Pre-hospital medicine is an innovative and growing field that is now recognised as a sub-specialty by the General Medical Council.
“Understanding your injuries is the beginning of the recovery process,” says Frank Chege
“When I joined, there were many misconceptions about London’s Air Ambulance, including that we are fully funded by the NHS or a flying patient transportation service,” says Siobhra Murphy, Head of PR & Communications. In 2011, she became the first in-house member of staff dedicated purely to communicating the key messages via PR and marketing.
Siobhra oversees all aspects of the London’s Air Ambulance brand, from managing PR campaigns to marketing collateral and everyday management of the charity’s digital channels, including the website and social media.

“I would like to thank everyone involved in the vital work London’ s Air Ambulance has done over the last 25 years to help deliver life-saving treatment to thousands of people.
