Bath Half Marathon 2025 · 16 March 2025 ·

We are volunteer doctors who provide emergency pre-hospital care in Wiltshire and surrounding counties. We respond to emergencies, supporting the ambulance service to give an extra level of support to those with immediate and life-threatening conditions due to an accident or medical event.

Story

At SWIFT Medics, we are a dedicated team of volunteer doctors who passionately offer our specialist expertise in pre-hospital emergency care to the communities of Wiltshire, Swindon, and Bristol.

As a registered charity, we equip and train these remarkable volunteers to respond to serious medical incidents in collaboration with the South Western Ambulance Service Trust. Each year, we are called to over 200 medical emergencies, providing critical care to around 300 patients in need.

However, each attendance costs an average of £75. To sustain our vital work—covering equipment and training—we rely entirely on the generosity of the public, as we receive no funding from the NHS. This is where you can make a difference!

We are excited to announce that we will be participating in the Bath Half Marathon on March 16th, 2025. Our goal is to raise £2,000 to support our life-saving mission.

Your support can help us continue this essential service. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and completely secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving—they will never sell them or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, your contribution goes directly to SWIFT Medics, making it the most efficient way to support our cause. Together, let’s ensure that every patient receives the urgent care they deserve!
