What we need....

Charity ChoiceWe are fundraising for...

  • £50K for a 4x4 vehicle to replace our old Transit ambulance
  • A new team base in or near Kelso where we can store kit and vehicles and further our training programme 
  • Your donations - every one will help us continue to provide our vital emergency service anytime in any weather, anywhere in our region.

Our day to day running requirements are nicely illustrated on this wordmap:
