Update on LFC Support to the London Ambulance Service During the Pandemic
Report LFC-0467 seeks the agreement of the London Fire Commissioner (LFC) to provide continuing support to the London Ambulance Service (LAS) during the COVID-19 pandemic. In March 2020, at the beginning of the Covid pandemic, the LFC agreed to provide assistance to the LAS due to the significant rise in the demand on that service which the LAS was unable to meet. That provision has continued throughout, but the number of personnel deployed by the LFC has reduced over time.
Agreed
