About us

The South Western Ambulance Charity was created in 1995 with an overall objective to fund activities that benefit the patients of the NHS and therefore provide a public benefit.  The aim of the charity is to “Go the extra mile for staff, volunteers and the communities we serve”. 

Although the Ambulance Service is funded by the government through the NHS, there is always a need for extra money to provide an even better service to patients. 

The Charity does this in three main ways: 

We support our exceptional people

The Staying Well Service provides the staff and volunteers of the South Western Ambulance Service with access to sources of help and support with their physical and mental health and wellbeing.  The importance of having a confidential lifeline for those people who are, by the very nature of the work they do, often exposed to traumatic and disturbing events, can’t be underestimated. 

The Staying Well Service is funded by the Ambulance Service with charitable income used to extend the support and services available to our exceptional people.  Additionally, the charity also supports the personal development of our staff and volunteers through the provision of training and development bursaries.

We support communities

The South Western Ambulance Charity is supporting defibrillator placement, maintenance and training across the 10,000 square miles served by the Ambulance Service. 

Increased public access to defibrillators results in more people receiving a life-saving shock as quickly as possible, giving them the best possible chance of survival.

We support our volunteer heroes

Community First Responders (CFRs) operate within the communities in which they live or work, providing lifesaving emergency aid early and ahead of ambulance arrival.  The South Western Ambulance Service is supported by over 800 Community First Responders, attending around 40,000 incidents each year – helping to save lives, reduce pain and provide reassurance to those requiring emergency care.   Charitable donations are used to support our volunteers by funding equipment and training over and above that provided by the Trust. 

Community First Responders are members of the public who volunteer to help reach those patients most in need.  CFRs can be called on at any time, day or night, and as the most rural Ambulance Service in England, the contribution of the CFRs is invaluable. 

CFRs are trained and governed by the South Western Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust.   Each CFR group is provided with an extensive kit bag containing everything required for basic life support in advance of an ambulance crew attending.  In addition to this, local fundraising activities are undertaken to purchase enhanced equipment to benefit their local communities.

How donations to the Charity from the BH Coastal Lottery are used:

Donations received from the BH Coastal Lottery are ring-fenced for use in Bournemouth to go the extra mile for our Ambulance Station staff and CFR groups through the provision of enhanced equipment and improved facilities.  Donations are also used to provide increased public access to defibrillators in the Bournemouth area. 

Thank you for your support and good luck!

Yours sincerely,

Mrs Zoe Larter - Head of Charity
