Make all Air Ambulance services in the UK government funded.

Rejected 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Our Air Ambulance service helicopters are one of the most vital parts of the UK emergency services but are often grounded due to lack of funding.

All counties should have a government funded air ambulance service. There is no excuse for not providing such an important life saving service.
