 To all my friends

I am running in this years London Marathon, this will be for the 2nd time, trying to bridge the gap of 17yrs since i last ran it. I got back into running again in November 2011, having completed several HM & 10k races.

So it is to you i come cap in hand, on my knees begging/asking for sponsorship. I am raising money for a Chairty called BEARS, a very worthy local based charity, who reply on donations to operate. I do appreciate the current financial climate & money is tight, but i would be very grateful & honoured if you could find time to donate to a very worthy cause, as Tesco say 'Every little helps!'

Protecting The Health Of The Community!

BASICS Essex Accident Rescue Service (BEARS) was formed in June 2011 following the merger of North East Essex Doctors Emergency Service (NEEDES) and Mid Essex Doctors Immediate Care Scheme (MEDICS).

Both NEEDES and MEDICS have provided Immediate Medical Care at the roadside in Essex since 1976. Both schemes being one of the first to be set up across the country.

NEEDES was formed by Dr Dunn while MEDICS (previously Saffron Waldon Accident Group) was formed by the now Vice Chair of BEARS Dr C John Eaton.

Dr C John Eaton wrote a text on Immediate Medical Care and is used by many as a key guide on this subject.

BEARS is a charity and relies solely on public donations. We receive no government grants or any NHS funding for our work. All the equipment carried by the members and the training they undergo is funded through our own publicity and fund raising.

Immediate Medical Care is the provision of skilled medical help at the site of an accident or medical emergency or in transit.

BEARS are a group of Doctors and Paramedics with additional training who respond voluntarily to provide advanced pre hospital care to those that need it. We work very closely with the Essex locality of the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust who dispatches us to calls where people may be critically ill or injured in the county.

The scheme is fully endorsed and supported by the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust and has a Memorandum of Understanding with them to operate. All members have an honorary contract with the Trust and have Trust ID as well as BASICS ID.

BEARS is part of the National charity of BASICS (The British Association of Immediate Care) and is an accredited scheme.

Many Thanks & Kind Regards
