Since the charity launched in 2000, our crews have been dispatched to patients at the roadside, in the city, on the beach, maybe near where you live. Read about our latest missions.

How we work to make a difference
A 24/7 service
With the combination of a quick response time, advanced critical care on scene and quick transfer to the appropriate hospital, our mission is to save more lives across East Anglia.
First Aid
We're aiming to minimise the impact of trauma in the community by providing vital first aid training, so more people can take action if someone nearby suffers a medical emergency.
Aftercare
The missions we attend are often life-changing for our patients. By offering dedicated aftercare support, we're helping more of our patients and their families with their recovery journeys.
Partnerships
By developing partnerships and collaborations with local organisations who have aligned ambitions to ours, we can continue to do the very best for each and every patient we treat.
Time Flies
We have created our first ever series of podcast interviews with different members of the EAAA family from 2000 to 2020, to explore their fondest memories. We will find out how the service started, the challenges they faced and the lessons learnt along the way.

Haydn was just 15 when he was knocked off his bike by a car. He wasn't wearing a cycle helmet and suffered a major brain injury which nearly killed him.
Doctor Victor Inyang and CCP Chris Neil gave Haydn an emergency anaesthetic to take over his breathing and protect his brain until they could get him to hospital.
