A SHETLAND councillor is calling for a local emergency services control centre to be created in the islands, a move that could ensure quicker and more accurate responses by the blue light services, he said.
Councillor Allison (Flea) Duncan’s campaign comes after an elderly lady who had suffered a broken pelvis last month had to wait for almost four hours for an ambulance to arrive after the initial call was redirected to Edinburgh.

An ambulance was only sent after the family of the woman called the Gilbert Bain Hospital, in Lerwick, as well as 999 again inquiring how much longer they had to wait for ambulance to arrive.
