  • 7 June 2021 Dear Andrew Blake-Herbert, I Am Writing to Provide You with an Update on Some Developments the Trust Is Undertaking
    Operations Directorate Headquarters 220 Waterloo Road London SE1 8SD 7 June 2021 Tel: 020 7783 2000 www.londonambulance.nhs.uk Dear Andrew Blake-Herbert, I am writing to provide you with an update on some developments the Trust is undertaking to further improve the high quality, urgent and emergency care we provide to Havering and the surrounding area. As you will know from our 2018-2021 Strategy, we outlined our ambition to become a world-class ambulance service for a world-class city through seven enabling strategies, one of which is the transformation of our operations and estate to ensure it is fit for the modern 21st Century. We recognised that our estate comprised of an eclectic mix of property inherited and accumulated over many years, much of which dated back to the Victorian times of horse-drawn ambulances in 1880s, and was not fit for purpose in a modern, world-class city. In driving forward our strategy and taking on board the recommendations from Lord Carter’s review into ‘Operational productivity and performance in English NHS ambulance trusts: unwarranted variation’, we published our ‘Estates Vision’ in 2019 which detailed how we plan to overhaul our estate by replacing our existing 68 stations with a network of circa 18 state-of-the-art Ambulance Deployment Centres, operating under a new ‘Hub and Spoke’ model. These Ambulance Deployment Centres, which will be supported by strategically located standby points and rest and refreshment posts for our staff and volunteers across London, aim to have modern, fit for purpose facilities for all of our staff and volunteers.
