Please consider making a donation to BASICS Dorset today. It's incredibly tough fundraising during a pandemic, yet we are busier than ever. We rely 100% on donations and without the help of our amazing supporters, we simply couldn't afford to keep running. basicsdorset.org.uk/donate

EB01 was first on scene to this patient. An example of great teamwork from multiple agencies. Great to hear he’s slowly recovering.
