A Jiu-Jitsu champion who suffered a stroke had to be rushed to hospital by his team after they were told an ambulance wouldn't arrive for seven hours. Gavin ‘ Iggy ‘ Thomas had just returned home after winning two silver medals at a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition in Rome when he suddenly fell ill on Monday, November 14.
, but was currently stable according to his coach. He said that Gavin had been suffering from migraines for months but that he was a "soldier" who "just carried on." He said: "This GoFundMe business is all new to me and I didn't know how to set up a page before this. I made it so it would go directly to Gavin. It doesn't change what's happened and no amount of money will, but it will hopefully help."
Lee Brooks, executive director of operations at the Welsh Ambulance Service, said: “Emergency ambulances are to deliver life-saving immediate care and to take patients promptly to hospital for treatment, so it’s as frustrating for us as it is for patients when we can’t deliver that part of our service.
