Regular Giving
South Central Ambulance Charity plays a vital role within the communities we serve as we fund our volunteer Community First Responders (CFRs) scheme which costs around £300,000 a year and is supported by over 1,000 volunteer CFRs. The NHS does not fund the ambulance service to provide this. CFRs assist the Ambulance Service by attending emergency calls in the areas where they live or work.
As they are local, they can often reach a potentially life-threatening emergency in the first vital minutes before the ambulance crew can get to the scene.
So as you can imagine regular and sustainable gifts are important to us. Setting up a regular gift is really easy to do via Enthuse or speak to your bank to set up your own standing order using our bank account details.
