HERE is the crew of the Yorkshire Air Museum Ambulance Service, which is now ready for duty at the popular attraction near York.

This latest emergency service was launched at the Elvington site and aims to provide cover for museum events, general visitors and volunteers.

The fully operational ambulance, nicknamed Sweet Charity, is manned by museum volunteers and several new volunteer members from Tees East and North Yorkshire Ambulance Service.

The team has already provided cover for the Old Goole Gala and the Yorkshire Air Show.
