South East Coast
Ambulance Service (SECAmb) is showing its support for the British
Legion’s Poppy Appeal by featuring a special design on its
ambulances.

All SECAmb ambulances have had poppy stickers affixed to them
with 12 ambulances – spread across the Trust’s Kent, Sussex and
Surrey region – being decorated with a larger poppy design.

The cost of the special livery has been kindly covered by a
number of SECAmb suppliers including R&J Motors, Sawyers and
HTC.

Many staff and volunteers will be taking part in Remembrance
Sunday parades this weekend and laying wreaths on behalf of SECAmb.
A long-established trip to Ypres will also take place, with staff
laying a SECAmb wreath at the Menin Gate Memorial.

SECAmb Chief Executive Philip Astle said: “The ambulance service
has close links with the armed forces and I know that many staff
support the Poppy Appeal and Remembrance Sunday and Armistice Day
in their local communities.

“I’m both pleased and proud to see our specially-liveried
vehicles responding across our region and would like to thank our
suppliers who have helped us to make this happen.”
