AN air ambulance has landed in a Canvey park in response to an emergency.

According to a Facebook post by Castle Point MP Rebecca Harris, the standby Essex and Herts Air Ambulance landed in the King George V playing field yesterday (August 8).

This was due to assisting with an emergency “just off Furtherwick Road”.

She added the Canvey First Responders were “already at the scene”.

The Echo has contacted the Essex and Herts Air Ambulance and Essex Police for a comment.
