Monday, 11 February, 2013

"The aim of the ASBF is to be more in line with the support currently offered to members of the Fire, Police and Military charities" explained Paul Leopold, ASBF Chairman.

He said: "The next steps for the ASBF is to prepare for the next 25 years and build upon the base support and funding currently provided and available."
Paul went on to confirm: "Currently income to provide support for the work of the Charity is donated through salary schemes like Give As You Earn, specific fund raising events, general donations, and recently legacies. We are also indebted to the generous support of Ambulance service magazines and journals and the support from ambulance suppliers such as KL Kerry London who during 2012 promised to donate a percentage of every confirmed order to the ASBF and we were delighted to have received a generous cheque from them."

He continued: "To undertake our aims and objectives there our important issues to be addressed from current methods of operation to a more professional and business approach. The intension is for the ASBF to be implementing its vision for the future early this year with an announcement about developments and 'Caring for the Carers' programmes."

Finally Paul said: "Meanwhile fund raising must continue and to help with this we need the support of the Ambulance Services and their staff NOW. We are actively asking people to become ASBF Champions and promote awareness about the charity to their colleagues and to encourage them to undertake the challenges of fund raising for us. We are always pleased to hear from members of the ambulance services because with your involvement we will together make all the difference"!
