Yesterday evening, our helicopter was the target of a laser attack while flying over Washington. Pilot JJ, along with two doctors and a paramedic, were returning back to base after a call-out when they were dazzled by a laser pen. Full story: greatnorthairambulance.co.uk/our-work/news/…

The #GNR may be over, but our recycling team's work isn't! 💦 Rain-soaked clothes collected at the start needed washing before we raise funds. Huge thanks to Fishers Laundry and Ashbank Laundry for cleaning them free of charge, turning donations into life-saving support 💚

Each item our doctors, paramedics, and pilots wear is meticulously chosen to prepare them for any emergency. A full uniform, from flight helmet to knee pads, costs a mind-blowing £5,087.19 🤯

🎥 The Guardian of the North II looking for a safe place to land. When landing, our pilots follow a protocol called 2D, a rule whereby they land in areas which are double the distance from the front tip of the blade path to the rail, roughly 30 metres in diameter 💭 #Helicopter
