East Anglian Air Ambulance’s new base in Cambridgeshire approved

EAAA said the new home in the west of its region would include helipads, a hangar, offices, a medical store and sleeping accommodation.

Hindson said: “We have acted quickly to identify a new site for our Cambridge-based operation that will allow us to continue providing this vital service, which directly treated over 900 people in 2025.”

The charity said it would be launching an appeal to raise money to build the base after the planning application was approved.

“Creating a new Cambridgeshire air base, from scratch, is our biggest ever project and we need to raise a significant sum of money to make this happen,” Hindson added.
