-within three minutes.

0:01:500:01:54

-Do you know the child's age?

0:01:540:01:56

-

-Seven.

0:01:560:01:59

0:02:080:02:10

-Is he conscious?

-

-I don't know.

0:02:100:02:12

-In less than 10 minutes,

-the helicopter reaches Penybanc...

0:02:130:02:18

-..a village near Llandeilo.

0:02:190:02:21

-100 feet.

0:02:220:02:24

-100 feet.

-

-The crews must land safely...

0:02:240:02:26

-..ensuring the blades avoid contact

-with the electric cables.

0:02:260:02:31

0:02:330:02:36

-The casualty is nearby.

0:02:360:02:38

-An ambulance and police car

-are already at the scene.

0:02:410:02:45

-Hello.

0:02:450:02:46

-Hello, Rhydian.

0:02:480:02:50

-Rhydian Richards is in pain

-following a serious accident.

0:02:500:02:54

-He was at a friend's house when

-a car drove over his left leg...

0:02:550:02:59

-..leaving a deep, open wound.

0:02:590:03:01

-Do you remember what happened?

0:03:020:03:04

-Entonox, or gas and air, is given

-to the seven-year-old boy...

0:03:040:03:10

-..to ease the pain.

0:03:100:03:12

-Is he just a friend of the family?

0:03:120:03:14

-Is he just a friend of the family?

-

-Yes, he just came to play.

0:03:140:03:16

-Take a deep breath. Good boy.

0:03:170:03:19

-They must check that Rhydian

-hasn't ruptured an artery...

0:03:210:03:25

-..or he may lose more blood.

0:03:250:03:27

-Rhydian's father

-is also at the scene.

0:03:280:03:30

-Are you Dad?

0:03:330:03:34

-Are you Dad?

-

-Yes. I'll stand to one side.

0:03:340:03:37

-First thing I saw were

-two police cars and an ambulance.

0:03:370:03:41

-When I saw the air ambulance, I

-thought it was the end of the world.

0:03:410:03:46

-Slow deep breaths.

0:03:460:03:48

-Good boy. Suck it in.

0:03:480:03:50

-Suck it in slowly. There you go.

0:03:500:03:53

-It's difficult to stem the blood.

0:03:540:03:56

-The paramedics use special chemical

-pads to stem the blood flow.

0:03:560:04:01

-Want another one?

0:04:020:04:04

-Want another one?

-

-One underneath.

0:04:040:04:07

-I saw the wound

-while they were working on it.

0:04:070:04:10

-They used bandages and packing.

0:04:100:04:12

-My worst fear

-was that he'd lost his leg.

0:04:130:04:16

-Alright, that's it.

0:04:160:04:18

-That's it.

0:04:180:04:20

-Are you Mum? Sorry if

-my colleagues have already asked.

0:04:220:04:25

-You're alright.

-You're a really good boy.

0:04:260:04:29

-Fantastic. Good boy.

0:04:290:04:31

-It's likely

-Rhydian has broken his leg.

0:04:310:04:34

-To keep the bone straight...

0:04:340:04:36

-..his leg is placed in a splint.

0:04:370:04:39

-..his leg is placed in a splint.

-

-OK, good boy.

0:04:390:04:41

-HE CRIES IN PAIN

0:04:430:04:45

-OK, sweetheart.

0:04:480:04:50

-Good boy.

0:04:500:04:52

-They're carrying you on a stretcher.

-I'll hold your hand.

0:04:540:04:58

-They fear Rhydian may lose his leg.

0:04:580:05:01

-Rhydian needs urgent specialist

-treatment at Morriston Hospital.

0:05:020:05:07

-Can we squeeze in? Lovely.

0:05:070:05:10

-There is only room

-for his mother in the helicopter.

0:05:120:05:16

-Dad will have to stay behind.

0:05:160:05:18

-Dad will have to stay behind.

-

-OK, on three. One, two, three.

0:05:180:05:21

-Good boy.

0:05:210:05:23

-Rhydian will be transported to

-hospital in less than eight minutes.

0:05:230:05:28

-It's a 40-minute journey by car.

0:05:280:05:30

-Paramedic Kevin Davies is hopeful

-about Rhydian's condition.

0:05:310:05:35

-He needs urgent

-medical attention in hospital...

0:05:350:05:39

-..to determine his injuries.

0:05:390:05:41

-The consultants at Morriston

-will do what needs to be done.

0:05:420:05:46

-Rhydian

-will be examined in hospital.

0:05:490:05:52

-Later, we'll discover how he's

-recovering from his injuries.

0:05:520:05:57

-Wales Air Ambulance

-needs to raise 6 million a year...

0:06:080:06:12

-..to keep

-the helicopters in the air.

0:06:120:06:14

-A large percentage

-of the charity's income...

0:06:150:06:18

-..is generated from its 18 shops.

0:06:180:06:20

-Crockery, clothes and furniture.

0:06:230:06:26

-The charity shops

-sell whatever the public donates.

0:06:260:06:30

-Husband-and-wife-team Nina and Huw

-are two of the staff at Felinfach.

0:06:300:06:36

-I'm the boss.

0:06:360:06:37

-I'm the boss.

-

-And I'm the servant.

0:06:370:06:40

-I initially

-came to the Air Ambulance...

0:06:400:06:43

-..as a volunteer

-to work in the shop in Swansea.

0:06:430:06:47

-I loved it.

0:06:470:06:49

-When a job became available here...

0:06:490:06:52

-..I was lucky enough to get it.

0:06:520:06:55

-At the rear of the shop

-is the charity's warehouse.

0:06:560:06:59

-Here, volunteers and staff

-repair and prepare the goods...

0:07:000:07:04

-..before distributing them.

0:07:040:07:07

-Some items

-are more memorable than others.

0:07:070:07:10

-We once had a banjolele.

0:07:100:07:12

-That was a special item

-that was donated.

0:07:130:07:16

-Everybody

-had a go at playing the banjo.

0:07:160:07:20

-Everyone who came in picked up

-the banjo. It was fantastic!

0:07:200:07:24

-We have a lot of fun here.

0:07:280:07:30

-We play with Barbie and Sindy.

0:07:300:07:34

-I have lots of Barbies and Sindys

-over there!

0:07:340:07:37

-It's not always easy deciding

-on a fair price for some items.

0:07:420:07:47

-I think it's lovely.

0:07:470:07:49

-The house is quite nice...

0:07:490:07:52

-..but some of the furniture

-is broken.

0:07:520:07:55

-How much do you think?

0:07:560:07:59

-9.99?

0:07:590:08:01

-Perhaps a bit more. 14.99, maybe?

0:08:010:08:04

-I wouldn't pay

-more than that myself.

0:08:040:08:07

-It's a nightmare.

0:08:070:08:09

-It's really tricky pricing items.

0:08:100:08:14

-We all price things differently.

0:08:160:08:20

-I might price something at 1.99

-because I don't like it...

0:08:200:08:26

-..whereas someone else

-might love it and price it at 5.99.

0:08:260:08:30

-Very subjective!

0:08:300:08:33

-Despite the fun,

-they know they must make a profit...

0:08:330:08:38

-..while keeping customers happy.

0:08:390:08:41

-We have targets to meet

-in the shop...

0:08:410:08:44

-..and we have to stock

-decent, sellable items.

0:08:440:08:48

-Customers come in...

0:08:490:08:51

-..and they want

-to buy something nice.

0:08:520:08:54

-They want a bargain

-and they get a bargain.

0:08:550:08:58

-But it's becoming harder and harder

-to offer bargains...

0:08:580:09:02

-..since the number of donations...

0:09:020:09:05

-..has decreased.

0:09:050:09:07

-People aren't buying new items...

0:09:070:09:11

-..which means

-they've nothing to donate.

0:09:110:09:14

-We're seeing less furniture because

-people are keeping them for longer.

0:09:140:09:20

-But through good times

-and bad times...

0:09:220:09:25

-..the staff and volunteers

-are dedicated to the charity.

0:09:250:09:29

-It's very important. We feel we're

-working together for the same cause.

0:09:290:09:35

-It's lovely.

0:09:350:09:38

-Coming up in Part 2....

0:09:420:09:43

-..the North Wales air ambulance crew

-come to the aid of a woman...

0:09:440:09:48

-..who's in anaphylactic shock.

0:09:480:09:51

-And we meet a carpenter who's

-fundraising for the charity...

0:09:520:09:56

-..following a serious accident.

0:10:110:10:13

-It's three o'clock on a Monday

-afternoon at Caernarfon Airbase.

0:10:150:10:19

-An unusual emergency call

-has just been received.

0:10:190:10:22

-We're going to Criccieth...

0:10:230:10:25

-..for a 35-year-old female

-that's been stung by a bee.

0:10:250:10:29

-On duty with Carl Hudson...

0:10:290:10:32

-..are Sam Williams

-and pilot Paul Ramsden.

0:10:320:10:35

-Radio's good.

0:10:360:10:37

-Radio's good.

-

-All set.

0:10:370:10:39

-It's an unusual call-out

-for the Helimed 61 crew.

0:10:420:10:45

-But a bee sting can kill.

0:10:450:10:49

-It can be fatal...

0:10:520:10:54

-..for someone

-who goes into anaphylactic shock.

0:10:540:10:58

-They may stop breathing...

0:10:580:11:01

-..and their tongue and mouth swell.

0:11:010:11:05

-The heart is also affected.

0:11:050:11:07

-They're in the vicinity

-within seven minutes.

0:11:090:11:13

-The first task

-is to locate the casualty's house.

0:11:130:11:16

-They make sure

-they're in the right area.

0:11:160:11:19

-We'll give them a call now. Thanks.

0:11:200:11:23

-There's a man in red.

0:11:240:11:26

-100 feet.

0:11:260:11:28

-Sam spots someone in red

-waving her arms at them.

0:11:290:11:32

-They need to land

-as close as possible to the house.

0:11:330:11:36

-Carl grabs his bag

-and goes to assess the casualty.

0:11:410:11:44

-Hello there. Hiya.

0:11:450:11:48

-Are we in here?

0:11:480:11:50

-Sam makes sure that no-one

-goes near the helicopter...

0:11:500:11:55

-..until the blades stop rotating.

0:11:560:11:58

-What time was this sting?

0:11:580:12:00

-What time was this sting?

-

-Carl examines the patient.

0:12:000:12:03

-Has it caused any problems?

-How's your breathing been?

0:12:030:12:07

-SHE GROANS

0:12:070:12:10

-You've got no allergies

-to anything like that?

0:12:100:12:13

-Ceri Hughes was in the garden

-when she was stung several times.

0:12:140:12:19

-Did you actually see what stung you?

-Was it a wasp?

0:12:190:12:23

-Mm.

0:12:230:12:26

-Unbeknown to her,

-she is allergic to bees...

0:12:260:12:29

-..which is why she

-has gone into anaphylactic shock.

0:12:290:12:33

-I'm going to stick these

-at the top of your shoulders, OK?

0:12:360:12:40

-The shock may affect her heart.

0:12:420:12:45

-The crew must continue

-to monitor her for any change.

0:12:450:12:49

-Can you feel that?

0:12:500:12:52

-Are my hands cold?

0:12:520:12:54

-Her condition's worsening.

0:12:580:13:00

-Ceri needs drugs immediately.

0:13:010:13:03

-She's deteriorated. She's tired.

0:13:050:13:08

-She's having problems breathing.

0:13:090:13:12

-Carl's currently

-giving her adrenalin...

0:13:120:13:17

-..to combat the poison.

0:13:170:13:19

-Small scratch coming up.

0:13:190:13:21

-But the adrenalin has no effect.

0:13:220:13:25

-There you are, sweetheart.

0:13:250:13:27

-How are you feeling now?

0:13:300:13:32

-Ceri?

0:13:350:13:36

-Do you want to lie back on your back

-and get your head down further?

0:13:370:13:41

-We administer adrenalin

-once every five minutes.

0:13:450:13:48

-If it doesn't work first time,

-we try again.

0:13:490:13:52

-We carry on like that for a while.

0:13:520:13:54

-After a second injection,

-she still doesn't improve.

0:13:540:13:58

-She must be admitted to hospital.

0:13:580:14:01

-We've a stretcher behind you. You

-need to walk to the conservatory.

0:14:010:14:06

-We'll carry you to the helicopter.

-Is that OK?

0:14:060:14:09

-Copter?

0:14:100:14:11

-The only way to travel!

0:14:110:14:13

-It was vital

-to get her to hospital...

0:14:130:14:16

-..before she deteriorated further.

0:14:160:14:19

-Our treatment failed

-to improve Ceri's condition.

0:14:190:14:23

-The best place for her was Ysbyty

-Gwynedd as quickly as possible.

0:14:230:14:28

-A bit more.

0:14:280:14:31

-There we go.

0:14:310:14:33

-If Ceri deteriorated,

-she could stop breathing in seconds.

0:14:330:14:37

-One, two, up!

0:14:410:14:43

-It's a six-minute journey

-by helicopter to Ysbyty Gwynedd.

0:14:460:14:50

-A journey

-which takes 40 minutes by car.

0:14:510:14:54

-There, Ceri will require

-further monitoring...

0:14:580:15:02

-..until she comes round.

0:15:020:15:04

-After a night in hospital...

0:15:130:15:15

-..Ceri went home to Criccieth.

0:15:160:15:18

-I knew I'd been stung a few times...

0:15:180:15:21

-..and perhaps I needed...

0:15:210:15:24

-I knew I needed something.

0:15:250:15:28

-I didn't think for a second

-that it was so serious.

0:15:290:15:33

-She's very grateful

-to the Helimed 61 crew.

0:15:330:15:36

-The Air Ambulance Service

-is essential.

0:15:370:15:40

-For me personally,

-I'll certainly be indebted to them.

0:15:410:15:47

-Once they're

-transported to hospital...

0:15:500:15:53

-..some patients spend months,

-and sometimes years, recuperating.

0:15:530:15:57

-Last year, we met Gwyndaf Davies...

0:15:570:16:00

-..a carpenter who sustained severe

-injuries from an accident in 2009.

0:16:000:16:05

-Now he's improving, he's been

-raising money for the Air Ambulance.

0:16:050:16:10

-Swansea Airbase, late April.

0:16:130:16:15

-Gwyndaf Davies is on his way to meet

-the South Wales air ambulance crew.

0:16:150:16:20

-Hello, Gwyndaf. Thank you very much.

0:16:200:16:23

-Thank you for your efforts.

-How are you feeling?

0:16:230:16:26

-Superb.

0:16:260:16:28

-In 2009, the red helicopter crew

-saved Gwyndaf's life.

0:16:280:16:32

-Since then, the family

-has been raising money...

0:16:330:16:36

-..and according

-to his mother, Linda...

0:16:360:16:40

-..the response

-has been very positive.

0:16:400:16:42

-Gwyndaf spent several weeks

-collecting items...

0:16:430:16:47

-..to raffle and auction,

-and we received lots of donations.

0:16:470:16:52

-We're grateful to everyone

-who's helped us raise money.

0:16:520:16:56

-People have given us donations...

0:16:560:16:58

-..and bought raffle tickets.

0:16:580:17:01

-He raised

-more than 15,000 in total.

0:17:010:17:04

-Gwyndaf has made

-a remarkable recovery...

0:17:050:17:08

-..but four years ago,

-it was touch and go.

0:17:080:17:11

-29 April, 2009.

0:17:140:17:16

-Gwyndaf was working on a farm...

0:17:160:17:18

-..in the village of Boncath

-near Cardigan.

0:17:190:17:22

-Gwyndaf had been working

-for a building firm.

0:17:230:17:27

-He was a skilled carpenter, but

-whilst working on a roof, he fell.

0:17:270:17:32

-He fell from a height of 15 feet.

0:17:320:17:36

-He fell to the ground

-and his head took the full impact.

0:17:360:17:41

-He landed on his head

-on a concrete floor.

0:17:420:17:45

-He broke several bones in his face,

-sustained brain trauma...

0:17:450:17:49

-..and spinal injuries.

0:17:490:17:51

-They dialled 999 and a paramedic

-arrived on the scene by car.

0:17:520:17:57

-He realized

-the severity of the injury.

0:17:570:18:00

-Swansea's air ambulance crew

-was despatched.

0:18:020:18:05

-One of the paramedics on duty

-was paramedic Aneurin Heath.

0:18:050:18:09

-We were unsure of the patient's

-condition at the time...

0:18:090:18:13

-..but judging from

-the information...

0:18:130:18:16

-..received by ambulance control,

-it sounded very serious.

0:18:160:18:21

-We were there within 15 minutes.

0:18:230:18:25

-By the time we'd landed...

0:18:260:18:28

-..there were people running around

-and panic had set in.

0:18:290:18:34

-He had severe head trauma.

0:18:370:18:39

-Gwyndaf needed

-urgent medical attention.

0:18:390:18:42

-The helicopter

-took him to Morriston.

0:18:420:18:45

-My husband phoned to tell me

-Gwyndaf had been injured...

0:18:450:18:49

-..and he'd been taken to Morriston.

0:18:500:18:52

-Within 10 minutes

-we were in Morriston.

0:18:540:18:57

-People were there waiting for us

-and he was rushed straight in.

0:18:580:19:03

-When the family arrived, Gwyndaf

-was on a life-support machine.

0:19:040:19:09

-The prognosis was poor.

0:19:090:19:11

-They told us the next 24 hours

-were going to be crucial.

0:19:120:19:17

-The worst thing...

0:19:170:19:19

-..was when they said

-they weren't sure he'd pull through.

0:19:200:19:24

-That was

-a horrendous shock for us all.

0:19:240:19:28

-Gwyndaf was in hospital

-for nine months.

0:19:280:19:32

-Now, four years later...

0:19:320:19:35

-..the carpenter

-is rebuilding his life.

0:19:350:19:39

-Hold it there.

0:19:430:19:45

-Although he still

-has physiotherapy sessions...

0:19:450:19:48

-..he's able to work

-alongside his father.

0:19:490:19:52

-Good grain on that.

0:19:530:19:54

-Carpentry was his field

-and he was a good carpenter.

0:19:550:19:59

-He's still a good carpenter.

0:19:590:20:01

-Yes, indeed.

-He's better than his father!

0:20:010:20:04

-Carpentry

-helps Gwyndaf a great deal.

0:20:050:20:07

-He and his father

-have made several furniture items.

0:20:080:20:11

-A Welsh dresser.

0:20:120:20:14

-A coffee table.

0:20:170:20:19

-A bench.

0:20:190:20:22

-Lots of things.

0:20:220:20:24

-The family has donated

-the items to the charity...

0:20:250:20:28

-..but this table is going to

-a special person in Gwyndaf's life.

0:20:290:20:33

-This is

-for Gwyndaf's physiotherapist...

0:20:330:20:37

-..on her 60th birthday.

0:20:380:20:41

-He made it for her.

0:20:410:20:43

-He wanted to give the lady

-a gift to thank her...

0:20:430:20:47

-..for helping him.

0:20:470:20:50

-The craftsman and his family...

0:20:510:20:53

-..are indebted

-to the air ambulance crew.

0:20:540:20:58

-We can't thank them enough.

0:20:580:21:00

-During his hour of need...

0:21:010:21:04

-..if it weren't for them,

-Gwyndaf wouldn't be with us today.

0:21:040:21:08

-We're very thankful.

0:21:080:21:10

-We're eternally grateful to them.

0:21:100:21:13

-And how is Gwyndaf?

0:21:130:21:15

-And how is Gwyndaf?

-

-Fine.

0:21:150:21:17

-In Part 1, we saw the Swansea crew

-helping Rhydian Richards.

0:21:220:21:27

-After eight nights in hospital...

0:21:270:21:29

-..he's now at home in Llandeilo.

0:21:300:21:32

-We took our cameras

-to check on his recovery.

0:21:320:21:35

-In Penybanc...

0:21:350:21:38

-..Rhydian's smile has returned.

0:21:390:21:41

-But for his father,

-the memories are still as vivid.

0:21:410:21:45

-I've never had that feeling before

-and I never want it again.

0:21:450:21:49

-I felt so helpless seeing him there.

0:21:500:21:52

-They were giving him gas and air and

-injecting morphine into his veins.

0:21:520:21:58

-It gave me the fright of my life.

0:21:590:22:01

-Deep breaths. Deep breaths.

0:22:020:22:04

-Rhydian had broken his leg -

-three ligaments and a tendon.

0:22:050:22:09

-When one of the boys at school

-asked Rhydian what had happened...

0:22:090:22:14

-..he said a shark

-had bitten his leg.

0:22:140:22:17

-That's what it looked like.

0:22:180:22:20

-A deep open wound

-with blood and flesh everywhere.

0:22:200:22:24

-It's like a snake -

-wonky and all over the shop!

0:22:240:22:28

-After three operations

-and a skin graft...

0:22:280:22:31

-..Rhydian is over the worst.

0:22:310:22:33

-He's gradually getting better.

0:22:340:22:36

-He's getting about on one leg

-and it seems to be improving.

0:22:360:22:40

-He'll still be in plaster for

-a while but he's in good spirits.

0:22:400:22:45

-He's starting

-to order people about the place!

0:22:450:22:49

-The family didn't think

-they'd ever need the air ambulance.

0:22:490:22:54

-They are indebted to those

-who treated their son.

0:22:540:22:58

-I can't thank them enough.

0:22:590:23:01

-The eight-minute helicopter journey

-from here to the hospital...

0:23:010:23:06

-..took far less time

-than taking him by ambulance.

0:23:060:23:10

-A very big thank you...

0:23:100:23:13

-..to the air ambulance crew...

0:23:130:23:16

-..for looking after me.

0:23:170:23:19

-Coming up next week...

0:23:210:23:23

-..a worker gets injured

-in the Brecon Beacons.

0:23:230:23:27

-I phoned 999

-and told them I wanted a helicopter.

0:23:270:23:31

-And ice and snow

-wreaks havoc on Wales's roads.
