New figures have been released by the Home Office.
Between 2012 and 2017 crews in the 2 counties were called for "bariatric assistance" 102 times.
The Home Office has released the figures after a number of Freedom of Information Requests.
They say a bariatric person is anyone who is overweight or ‘plus size’.
Across England in the same period there were more than 2,800 requests for bariatric assistance.
