🚑💚 Happy Mother’s Day to the Incredible Mums of the Ambulance Service 💚🚑

Today we’re sending a huge shout-out to all the amazing mums across the ambulance service. The ones who somehow manage to juggle one of the most demanding jobs out there while still being the glue that holds their families together.

To our frontline crews out on the road today, responding to calls, comforting patients, and making life-saving decisions in the moments that matter most. Many of you will be spending today in an ambulance rather than around the kitchen table with your families, but your compassion and dedication never go unnoticed.

To our control room teams and call handlers, the calm voices on the other end of the line when people need help the most. You guide crews, reassure callers, and keep the system moving even on the busiest days, all while carrying the same love and responsibility you do at home as mums.

And to the countless support staff who keep the whole service running behind the scenes. Fleet teams keeping vehicles on the road, dispatchers and planners keeping resources moving, station staff, cleaners, logistics, trainers, admin teams and everyone else who keeps the gears of the ambulance service turning day and night. Without you, none of it works.

We know that for many of you, Mother’s Day might mean a shift instead of breakfast in bed, a quick phone call instead of hugs, or celebrating with your family on another day when the rota allows. That sacrifice is something people outside the job don’t always see, but it speaks volumes about the dedication you bring both to your patients and your families.

Being a mum is already a full-time job. Being a mum in the ambulance service takes a special kind of strength, resilience, humour, and heart.

So today we celebrate every ambulance service mum – whether you’re on the road, in the control room, in the workshop, behind a desk, or finally putting your feet up after a long shift.

From everyone at UK Ambulance Humour, thank you for everything you do.

💐 Happy Mother’s Day – you truly are the real multi-tasking heroes. 💐

Today marks six years since the world first changed with the arrival of COVID-19.

It’s one of those strange milestones that feels both like yesterday and a lifetime ago.

For ambulance crews, call handlers, NHS staff and emergency workers across the country, the pandemic brought a level of pressure and uncertainty none of us had ever seen before. The job suddenly became something very different. PPE became part of the uniform, hand sanitiser appeared in every pocket, and “Have you got a mask?” became as common as “Have you got the keys for the ambulance?”

Those early days were surreal. Streets that were normally busy fell silent. Hospitals worked at full stretch. Crews were going from call to call in full PPE, trying to stay calm, professional, and reassuring while also quietly wondering what the next shift would bring.

But alongside the difficult moments, there were also moments that reminded us why we do the job.

Communities came together in ways we’d never seen before. People checked in on neighbours, delivered shopping to those shielding, and every Thursday evening the country stepped outside to clap for carers. Crews would sometimes be out on the road hearing the applause echo through the streets, a small but powerful reminder that people understood just how hard everyone was working.

Of course, in true ambulance service fashion, we also found ways to keep our sense of humour alive. When you’re twelve hours into a shift wearing PPE that feels like a portable sauna, sometimes laughter is the only thing keeping you going. Whether it was creative mask tan lines, fogged-up visors, or the never-ending hunt for decent station biscuits, crews still managed to keep spirits up.

Behind the humour though was something much deeper. Dedication. Teamwork. Resilience. From ambulance crews and call handlers, to hospital staff, care workers, and volunteers, the entire healthcare community stood shoulder to shoulder during one of the most challenging periods in modern history.

Today is a day to remember those who lost their lives, and to acknowledge the many people still living with the lasting effects of the pandemic. It’s also a moment to recognise every single person across the NHS and emergency services who turned up, put the uniform on, and did their job when the country needed them most.

And because this is the ambulance service, we’ll also take a moment to remember the great PPE debates of 2020…
• Was the mask on properly?
• Did anyone remember the hand gel?
• And why does tea taste different after wearing gloves for 12 hours?

Six years on, a lot has changed. But the things that carried us through then are still the same today: teamwork, dark humour, a strong brew, and the determination to keep going no matter what the shift throws at us.

Stay safe everyone.

🚑🖤🤍 Happy St Piran’s Day! 🤍🖤🚑

Today the black and white flag flies high across Kernow, and it’s only right we tip our helmets to the incredible ambulance crews serving Cornwall. From blue lights weaving along cliff roads to navigating summer traffic that moves slower than a tractor in January, they’re there day and night keeping communities safe 🌊

Massive respect to the dedicated professionals at South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust who cover some of the most breathtaking, and sometimes challenging, terrain in the country. Coastal rescues, rural lanes, packed beaches, winds that try to relocate the ambulance entirely… and still the job gets done. Proper job indeed.

St Piran might be the patron saint of tin miners, but today we’re also thinking of the lifesavers, call handlers, dispatchers and volunteers who answer 999 without hesitation. Through storms, bank holidays, festival weekends and pasty-fuelled celebrations, they show up.

So whether you’re on shift, just finished shift, or enjoying a well earned brew, here’s wishing everyone across Cornwall a brilliant St Piran’s Day.

Stay safe, look after each other, and fly that flag high 🖤🤍🚑

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹

West Midlands Police have confirmed the death of Detective Constable Tayyab Malik, aged 35.

DC Malik was sadly found to have passed away in Billesley, Birmingham on the afternoon of Tuesday 24th February 2026. His loss will be deeply felt across the force and wider policing family.

Police have stated that his death is not being treated as suspicious and a file is being prepared for the coroner.

Assistant Chief Constable Mike O’Hara said the force is “devastated” by the news and that Tayyab will be hugely missed by his colleagues and friends across West Midlands Police.

Tayyab’s family and friends paid tribute, remembering him as a dedicated serving police officer and as a beloved son, husband, brother, friend and nephew. They said there are no words to describe the depth of their loss and that he will always remain in their hearts.

Today we remember DC Malik for the service he gave, the people he protected and the colleagues he stood alongside. Policing is more than a job; it is a calling. And every day our officers walk into danger so others can walk in safety. That service comes with sacrifice, and when one of our own is lost, the whole family feels it.

Our thoughts are with DC Malik’s family, his friends and everyone at West Midlands Police who are grieving his loss.

Rest in Peace. 💙

Stay safe out there and look out for each other.
