The BEEP Fund was set up in April 1994 to provide valuable equipment,
emergency medical supplies and a dedicated vehicle to provide
immediate medical care at the scene of road traffic accidents
and other trauma or medical emergencies in the Penrith area.
The service is operated as a registered charity by doctors from
the Birkbeck Medical Group on a voluntary basis and it is currently
receiving around 180 calls per year via the local ambulance control.
All fundraising pays for the equipment, the vehicle and specialist
training for the doctors, who are all members of the British Association
of Immediate Care (BASICS).
This site provides information about our
organisation,
our continued
fundraising – a service like this needs constant resourcing and updating
– and our activities
and it also includes details of recent
call outs, emergency
advice and links
to other organisations working in this area.
Thank you for your interest and we look forward to your support.
