LAS Cycle Team

London Ambulance Service’s team of Paramedics cycling to emergencies across London, in The West End, The City, Victoria, Islington, Kingston and Heathrow Airport. Highly skilled at getting to areas quickly where others struggle. Promoting a healthier, greener London 🚲.

Incident update 🔽 We were called at 4.50pm today (Monday 8) to Terminal 4 at Heathrow airport. We sent ambulance crews, our cycle response unit, an incident response officer, and our hazardous area response team (HART). We treated 21 patients before taking one to hospital.

Defibs save lives 💚 Thanks to quick action from John's @United Airlines colleagues and #TeamLAS he survived a #CardiacArrest last year. After an emotional reunion with Cycle Paramedic Rob, John is calling for others to support our #LondonHeartStarters campaign (link in bio)

Graham was the first ever #CardiacArrest patient to be treated by @LAS_CycleTeam at @HeathrowAirport 20 years ago. "My kids would be without a dad and my grandkids would be without a grandad if it wasn’t for the help of the paramedics. They saved my family from grieving"

Across London, our Cycle Response Unit has cared for over 100,000 patients and cycled nearly half a million miles. This year we're celebrating 20 years of the @LAS_CycleTeam saving lives at @HeathrowAirport 👏 Read more about our partnership: buff.ly/4hM2bmL
