In an emergency dial 111

The new Taranaki Community Rescue Helicopter will be one year old on the 8th June 2008.

The Agusta Westland A119 Koala replaced the Squirrel AS350. Taranaki Electricity Trust and TSB Community Trust each granted $2 million for the purchase of this purpose built, state-of-the-art, emergency rescue helicopter.

Taranaki Rescue Helicopter Trust Chairman, Mark Masters, says “We are very grateful for these substantial grants. With backing of this level, the two trusts clearly demonstrate their commitment to the people of Taranaki. The rescue helicopter has saved many lives over the fifteen years it has operated in the province. Being able to purchase a new, well equipped, modern vehicle enables us to provide an even better service for the people of Taranaki.
