Welcome

Supported entirely by voluntary donations!

Welcome to the official web site of the Ambulance Services Benevolent Fund (Incorporating AMCARE UK). We would encourage you to make time to visit all the site pages before logging off, thank you.

“Ambulance personnel, like all health care workers, dedicate their lives to helping others in need but sadly sometimes fall into difficulties or are injured themselves whilst doing so. The Ambulance Services Benevolent Fund seeks to provide a comprehensive support network for them in a whole variety of ways.

The Trustees give a great deal of their time and effort to fulfil these objectives but are often frustrated because of lack of funds to enabled them to help staff as comprehensively as they would like to. We would ask you to consider making a donation to this essential welfare work as we receive no Government or Lottery grants, but rely on voluntary donations from public spirited people like you.

We feel we still work within the true spirit of charitable work, we have no paid employees and our only overheads are minimal legitimate administration costs. Pennies put into a money box soon make pounds! Even if you only donate a few pennies, we will acknowledge your kindness and you can rest assured it will contribute towards helping someone in genuine need who will truly value your kindness and generosity.

Your donations and commitment are extremely important to us, so please accept my thanks on behalf of the Trustees for your ongoing and valued support. As a direct result of any Gift Aid declaration, we will be able to offer even more long term support to the people who need it most, thank you”.

Please make all cheques payable to the ‘Ambulance Services Benevolent Fund’ and forward to the National Secretary, thank you.

The Ambulance Services Benevolent Fund is a registered charity, established in 1986 to help ambulance personnel and their dependants from all over the United Kingdom, Ireland, Channel Islands and the Isle of Man in times of genuine hardship. The Trustees are all volunteers. They are not paid and they work for the ASBF in their own limited spare time. Our philosophy is to help people help themselves where ever possible so we will involve you in any decisions that involve outside agencies.

The assistance given to both serving and retired ambulance personnel continues to grow year on year and the Fund has now become firmly established within the field of ambulance staff welfare. The Fund continues to assist members and families in a whole variety of distressing circumstances, many arising from the stressful and demanding incidents they are called to deal with on a daily basis. It is quite clear, that there is still a need for such Charitable work within the 21st Century, but such work also requires finance to effectively operate, therefore we would encourage you, following this website visit, to support and encourage others to support our Charity, to allow us to help ambulance staff both now and in the future in a more substantial manner.

Improving working and retired ambulance colleagues lives since 1986!

Help us to continue growing to meet the growing needs being placed upon us.
