Responding to some of the most serious incidents across Hampshire, these critical care clinicians volunteer in addition to their staff roles at SCAS and provide a vital service. The team relies on voluntary donations, so we are enormously grateful to ExxonMobil Fawley for supporting them.” Joel Mizen, Site Manager at ExxonMobil Fawley, said: “Safety is at the heart of everything we do here on site, so we know how important it is that the right support, equipment and expertise are available when they are needed most. Daniel and the SCAS BASICS team provide an invaluable service across the Waterside and we are pleased to support the specialist capabilities that help bring advanced emergency care closer to local communities.” For more information on ExxonMobil Fawley, please visit: exxonmobil.co.uk ExxonMobil Fawley is helping to bring advanced lifesaving care closer to patients across the Waterside and New Forest through a £10,000 donation to the South Central Ambulance Service (SCAS) BASICS team. BASICS, the British Association for Immediate Care, provides pre-hospital care when it is needed most, supporting highly trained volunteer doctors and paramedics who respond alongside ambulance crews at serious and life-threatening incidents. e funding will equip local volunteer Daniel Reeve with the specialist tools needed to respond to emergencies and deliver urgent advanced care, including emergency warning lights and sirens for his response vehicle, a handheld ultrasound device with iPad integration, and a set of specialist clinical bags. Daniel, who works as an Advanced Clinical Practitioner in Critical Care Outreach and volunteers as a BASICS Enhanced Care Paramedic, is based in Holbury and responds to emergencies across the Waterside region, the New Forest and beyond. “As a volunteer, I have to raise the funds to buy my own equipment, so this support really does make a difference,” said Daniel. “It means I can respond quickly to emergencies across the region with the right tools and provide advanced support when it is needed most. Living and working in this community, where specialist hospital care can be some distance away, I know how important those first few minutes can be. I’m incredibly grateful to ExxonMobil Fawley for helping make this possible.” Last year alone, the SCAS BASICS team attended more than 500 serious and life-threatening incidents, with one in eight callouts taking place between 2am and 7am, when no other funded enhanced or critical care service is available. Vanessa Casey, CEO of SCAS Charity, said: “We are delighted to receive this important funding from Richard Rastall, Fawley Site Safety, Security, Health and Environment Manager Joel Mizen, Site Manager at ExxonMobil Fawley and Daniel Reeve, Advanced Clinical Practitioner in Critical Care Outreach and BASICS Enhanced Care Paramedic volunteer Men’s Mental Fitness Group With Talk Club Finally, a library asking you to talk!
