Essex & Herts Air Ambulance Trust is delighted to confirm that the Essex Air Ambulance has relocated from Boreham airfield to Earls Colne airfield with a brand new visitor area due to be launched in July 2011.

Over the last 12 months, having secured planning consent and an affordable building design, TJ Evers the appointed building contractor arrived on site in January to begin this exciting new chapter in the history of the Essex Air Ambulance.

The first stage of the relocation sees the Essex Air Ambulance commence flying from the new operational base in Earls Colne on Thursday 31st March with brand new facilities in place for the Air Crew. Once building work finishes the second stage of the project will see the official opening of a modest visitor area in early July 2011 which has been made possible with a grant from ICAP following their annual Charity Day in 2009. This new facility will enable the Charity to host meetings and events and accept visitors.
