Tributes have been made to a highly-respected and much loved London Ambulance Service paramedic who has sadly died after losing his battle with COVID-19. 

Ian Reynolds was a Paramedic based at New Addington. 

He had worked for the London Ambulance Service for 32 years and was a ‘committed’ and ‘active’ UNISON rep.

A spokesperson for UNISON London Ambulance Branch said:

“Ian worked for the service for 32 years and was still as active as ever until falling ill with COVID 19 last month.

“Ian embodied all the values of the union – a wise, experienced and popular man who had time for everybody and could relate to his colleagues, members and patients alike – regardless of their background or identity – with an ease that endeared him to everyone he came across. 

“In addition to his tireless union and frontline work, Ian was the principle liaison between the LAS and all the Croydon care homes, using his easy charm and wit to build bridges, as he did everywhere he went.

“He was a passionate union man, a devoted Crystal Palace fan and an unapologetic mod. 

“He loved his music, consuming live gigs like he did craft ales. 

“Ian was the mate who always had time for a curry and a chat, who knew what you were going through and would be there for you with wise words and irreverent jokes in equal measure.

“They don’t make them like Ian any more. 

“He will be deeply missed by his union comrades, his Croydon ambulance family, his boys Jack and Ben (of whom he was immeasurably proud) and his wife Sian, who he loved with all his heart”.

Before you go...

We need your help. As former emergency services & armed forces personnel, we pride ourselves on bringing you important, fast-moving and breaking news stories which are free from the negative bias which is often directed at the emergency services by some sections of the mainstream media.

One of the reasons we started 'Emergency Services News' was because we became tired of reading badly informed stories about the emergency services which seemed only ever to highlight negative aspects of the job.

We want to be the unheard voice of the remarkable men and women who serve in the emergency services, NHS and armed forces. And with around 500k page views each month, we are getting there!

As income from ads, the mainstay source of income for most publishers, continues to decline; we need the help of our readers.

And remember, if you have a service, product or job vacancy that you would like to promote to our large readership, then you can buy advertising space in our articles.

You can support emergency services news from as little as £1. It only takes a minute. Every contribution, however big or small, is vital for our future.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
