The Client:
Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance
Wiltshire and Bath Air Ambulance is a vital emergency charity providing rapid, life-saving medical care to people across Wiltshire, Bath, and the surrounding areas. Operating a helicopter and critical care response vehicles, the charity is available 24/7 and relies entirely on public donations to fund its life-saving service.
The Challenge
Following a corporate acquisition of their previous provider, the charity experienced a significant decline in service quality:
- Decline in service levels after the provider's corporate acquisition
- Lack of consistency in support contacts, with no dedicated relationship
- Poor communication and limited updates on phone system issues
- Missed calls impacting the charity's service delivery and operations
Working with Elevate Cloud has made a real and measurable difference for us. Support response times are consistently fast, issues are resolved efficiently, and we finally have confidence that our systems are being proactively managed. Just as importantly, the move has reduced our IT and telephony costs, freeing up valuable funds that can be reinvested directly into other areas of the charity.
