It was formed from the amalgamation of the Buckinghamshire Ambulance Service and the Northamptonshire Ambulance Service on 1 April 1993. [1] The Buckinghamshire half was succeeded as part of the creation of the South Central Ambulance Service [2] and the Northamptonshire half was succeeded as part of the creation of the East Midlands Ambulance Service on 1 July 2006.[3]
It was headquartered at Deanshanger in Northamptonshire.
Controversy[edit]
Robert King, who applied as a trainee at Two Shires Ambulance Service in 1994, then "rising through the ranks to operation manager" before he resigned in 2011[4] was revealed to be dishonest by failing to admit to a conviction.[5] It was discovered, that he had been found guilty in 1981 for murdering a gay photographer while he was a teen. King joined Two Shires Ambulance Service and had 'failed to declare his conviction when applying for a job with the Trust."
