James Evans MS & Fay Jones MP have both expressed disappointed with the proposal to close the Wales Ambulance Welshpool base. With ambulance response times such a concern across Brecon and Radnorshire, and with no general hospital or A&E department, it is understandable that the proposal creates fears of even more delays. They are running a joint survey to ensure that Brecon and Radnorshire residents' voices are heard on plans to close the Welshpool base of the Wales Air Ambulance.
They said " We are both deeply concerned about the plans which will could leave our area, one of Wales' most rural areas, with slower response times and less area coverage. Wales Air Ambulance's alternative bases are in Caernarfon, Cardiff and Llanelli"
Filling in the survey should only take two to three minutes but will ensure that your views can be fed back to the Wales Air Ambulance. You can find it here
Fay and James have paper copies of the Save Wales Air Ambulance Campaign in both their offices.
