Two air ambulance helicopters landed in Chippenham for an injured cyclist this afternoon.

Emergency services were called to Stainers Way at just after midday, after a man suffered serious head injuries during a fall from his bicycle.

Wiltshire Air Ambulance and Great Western Air Ambulance – in a temporary red air ambulance rather than its usual green and blue one – landed on the field of Hardenhuish School.

Two rapid response vehicles and an ambulance were also sent to the scene.

The casualty was airlifted to Southmead Hospital in Bristol.

A spokesperson for Wiltshire Police confirmed that they attended the scene to assist paramedics, however, it’s not believed the cyclist was involved in a collision.
