(UK, 1133797) Wiltshires Emergency Response Doctors Charity SWIFT Medics are a registered charity providing emergency medical care in Wiltshire at the scene of incidents or sudden severe serious medical conditions such as heart attacks, severe asthma or meningitis. SWIFT Medics have 10 doctors across Wiltshire who respond to calls from the South Western Ambulance Service to support the ambulance crew in incidents where a Emergency Response Doctor is required. Incidents range from road traffic accidents on the M4 or country roads, to attending to heart attack victims or children with breathing difficulties. Calls can come any time of day or night, 7 days a week. Doctors can be dispatched to incidents further afield and in 2005 two SWIFT Medics doctors attended the London bombings. SWIFT Medics receive no funding from the NHS or emergency services sector and rely solely on donations to fund its operation. All staff at SWIFT Medics give their time purely on a voluntary basis so money raised for SWIFT Medics goes directly towards the specialist training of doctors and medical equipment needed to attend medical emergencies across Wiltshire.

Child In Need India
(UK, SC029591) Browse events
YTD Raised: £1,809.02Welcome! Child In Need India (CINI) works to break down the intergenerational cycle of poverty. Our vision is of an India in which children are able to reach their full potential, regardless of their gender, caste, class or ethnicity. To bring this about, we work with local community groups and government bodies to create sustainable improvements in nutrition, access to healthcare and access to education. In particular we empower women and children at key stages: childhood, adolescence and pregnancy, with programmes designed to help them lay the foundations for a happy healthy life. CINI UK is run by a lone fundraiser so administration costs are exceptionally low and local staff and volunteers carry out and deliver the program work in India keeping costs lower than for organisations dependent on foreign aid workers. This means even with small donations we can make a radical difference! For £10 a month, you can sponsor a mother and transform not only her life, but that of her child and her family. If you prefer to give a one-off donation we also very much welcome these.
