London's Air Ambulance (LAA) has received a case of HEMS-Star® portable helipad lights, which will help LAA dramatically particularly during winter when there are fewer daylight hours. A case of HEMS-Star® weighs 10.6Kg and contains eight powerful rechargeable battery powered LED helipad lights that can rapidly be deployed at designated or ad-hoc helicopter landing areas. HEMS-Star® lighting will help London's Air Ambulance to extend their operational hours by providing safe and effective marking of night time landing sites. The charity also plans to use HEMS-Star® as a training tool at their base at RAF Northolt.
Fraser MacKay, commercial director of FEC Heliports Equipment Ltd said: “We are proud to support the HELP Appeal’s continuing mission to promote, develop and enhance support for the provision of Helicopter Emergency Medical Services throughout the country. The delivery of a case of HEMS-Star® to London's Air Ambulance will help in their essential work to bring the hospital to the patient wherever that may be and safely deliver their services outside of daylight hours.”
