Our wish list and thank you page!
We could not do what we do without the kind and generous donations we receive. Whilst it's true that our dedicated members and volunteers give their time and efforts and build their personal kit, as an organisation, we need professional, rated, and adequate kit and equipment.

We have many special projects we are undertaking. One of them is helping the Governments of developing nations and those struck by disasters at their more exposed and vulnerable times. A lot of people want to help but can't get there. In helping ERT SAR you are helping a team who has always been useful on deployed disaster missions and indeed saved lives in the hot zone.
