Newsnight has spent months investigating what’s going on at different NHS trusts in England and Wales, and the impact it’s having on patients. 

Our revelations centre on the West Midlands Ambulance Service where this year so far 37 patients have died after an ambulance was delayed in getting to them. 

In the whole of 2020, only one person died before the ambulance turned up after a delay. 

Darren Childs waited 47 minutes for an ambulance when his one-year-old daughter had a seizure, far beyond the 7 minute response target for such a life or death call. He fears ‘we are losing the NHS’ and that this winter’s pressures will ‘topple’ it.

Chief Correspondent David Grossman reports.
