Welcoming TVAA to Marlow Fire Station

Martin Bowdler, Assistant Director of Operations for TVAA, said:

“This is a great example of emergency services coming together to protect our community and we are grateful to BFRS for their work to make this happen.

“Being able to operate one of our critical care response vehicles in Marlow will mean we are ideally placed for responding to incidents across the area, when every minute matters. As well as our helicopter operating from our base in Benson, having response cars at key places across the region means we can give people the best possible chance of survival and recovery by bringing the hospital to the patient, wherever they are.”

Phill Mould, our Group Commander Service Delivery South, said:

“Marlow Fire Station is already utilised by South Central Ambulance Service, to provide emergency ambulance crews with standby and welfare facilities. We see working with the Thames Valley Air Ambulance as a natural extension of this facility and are pleased to be able to support the safety and welfare of our emergency service partners.

“This is another great example of collaborative working, enabling the provision of emergency services to the community whilst supporting the welfare of those that provide it.”
