For the last 20 years we have been by the side of people across Dorset and Somerset and you have been with us all the way. We have been tasked to thousands of missions and have helped to save so many lives. During this time, our service has been able to improve and enhance beyond recognition; none of this would have been possible without your support!
The need for our service is rising year on year; we must make sure we continue to be there for the next 20 years and beyond. Your support is vital; we simply can’t do this without you!
Your donations and brilliant fundraising really do make a difference to patients' lives, thank you!
Brave is a word that we associate with the patients who share their stories with you in hope that it will inspire others to support us. Every story that you read has come from their hearts and is often difficult to tell, but tell they do. Our sincere thanks go to them all, as without their courage to do this, you would never know the full impact of our service.
