BEEP Doctors (BASICS) Cumbria is a charity providing skilled volunteer doctors who can rapidly respond to accidents and emergencies in the community.

Its team of 12 volunteer doctors work 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide enhanced emergency care and surgical procedures that are not normally possible until a patient reaches hospital.

Last year Sellafield Ltd provided over 拢91k of funding to the charity through our Social Impact Multiplied (SiX) programme of community investments, enabling the BEEP Doctors to buy two brand new emergency response vehicles.

This year an additional 拢61k has helped the Doctors to equip their vehicles with additional kit such as mechanical ventilators, chest compression devices, and patient monitoring systems; meaning they can respond to a wider variety of emergencies and potentially save more lives.

Sellafield Ltd CEO Euan Hutton met with the BEEP Doctors this week to see the new equipment for himself and learn more about the difference it will make. He said:

鈥溁使谔逵齛pp BEEP Doctors do vital work in our communities, and we鈥檙e delighted to continue our support in getting them the equipment they need.

鈥淥ur 拢10m annual programme of social impact investments is focussed on creating and sustaining thriving communities and working with organisations to improve the health and wellbeing of the community is an important part of this.

鈥淚鈥檓 proud that our funding will help the BEEP Doctors save even more lives, and get patients back to their families.鈥�

Dr 皇冠体育appo Weston MBE, BEEP Doctors Cumbria Chair, said:

鈥淭his new equipment has revolutionised our input at the roadside and our patients will benefit significantly

鈥溁使谔逵齛pp chest compressor works better than any human and without the high-tech monitoring and ventilation systems we wouldn鈥檛 be able to provide the same level of pre-hospital care to patients.

鈥淲e are sincerely grateful to Sellafield Ltd for their continued support.鈥�
