A special mobile treatment unit is going to be set up in Cheltenham during the world cup.

It will treat people with minor injuries, so they don't have to go to A&E and slow up treatment for people with more serious injuries.

The unit is being brought in over the World Cup period, especially for England games when more of us will be heading to the pub.

Kevin Dickens is from the Great Western Ambulance Trust, he told Heart more about the scheme:

The units were used as a trial during Cheltenham race week and were a big success.
