Suffolk Lowland Search And Rescue. (UK, 1091537) Browse events

YTD Raised: £3,147.00

We area voluntary organisation which is part of ALSAR (Association of Lowland Search and Rescue). We are normally called out by Suffolk Constabulary, but we also respond to calls from other search teams in neighbouring counties. We mainly search for vulnerable missing persons (known as mispers). SULSAR is a registered charity & therefore we rely on donations, although members are volunteers and they require specialist equipment and therefore donations are vital. SULSAR was founded in April 1998 by Kevin Waterson, after he had cause to use the services of Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue Team and the Search and Rescue Dog Association (SARDA), when a group of walkers were caught in bad weather. He was so impressed with the efficient way in which the rescue team and dogs worked that he started to think how useful such techniques would be in finding such people as Alzheimer"s sufferers and missing children. An initial meeting took place with Suffolk Police to check the feasibility of such an idea within Suffolk. A core group was formed with friends who had shown an interest in the idea. They received search training from experienced Mountain Rescue Council (MRC) Search Managers through ALSAR and from the Milton Keynes Search and Rescue Team. That initial core group, went on to receive specialist training from MRC tutors and experts from the USA at the University of Wales in Bangor, and attended an internationally recognised search course, being presented with certificates in "Search Management" by the MRC. We are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, and in all weathers!

Rhodesian Ridgeback Welfare Trust (UK, 1042184) Browse events

YTD Raised: £2,639.40

The Rhodesian Ridgeback Welfare Trust was formed in 1994 to relieve the suffering and distress of Rhodesian Ridgebacks who are in need of help and to provide re-homing if necessary. The bulk of our work is finding new homes for pure-bred Ridgebacks which, for a variety of reasons, are unable to remain with their owners. Some Rhodesian Ridgebacks are simply victims of circumstance, perhaps a bereavement, break up of a relationship, loss of job or home or a family move overseas. These dogs are usually trouble free and settle easily into a new environment. Others come from unsuitable homes where they may have been mistreated or allowed to develop bad habits which would need to be corrected. In our experience, very few Ridgebacks are un-trainable and having won their confidence, a rescue Ridgeback will reward you with loyalty, affection and a great deal of enjoyment. We have developed procedures which with careful home-checking and dog assessment, aim to place each individual dog in an appropriate home for the rest of its life. We promote responsible Rhodesian Ridgeback ownership and discouragement of the irresponsible breeding of the breed. We provide or maintain kennels, rescue homes, animal hospitals, sanctuaries or other facilities for the reception and care of unwanted Rhodesian Ridgebacks together with veterinary care if required. The Welfare Trust is entirely dependent on the generosity of you and is supported in its work by volunteers throughout the country who assess dogs, check homes and help with transport, emergency kennelling or fostering.
