Required	Description
Premises	We are urgently looking for a home. We don't need much but we do need somewhere we can gain access to 24 hours a day. In an ideal world it would be somewhere we could meet, train and store our equipment. We are happy to "do it up" as required.
Equipment	We are looking for a portable display system that we can easily set up at exhibitions, fetes, country shows etc. This will help us to recruit new members, raise our profile and raise much needed funds.
Equipment Supplied Thank you	Burco gas boiler or similar. This will enable us to provide our searchers with hot drinks and instant snacks that require hot water. Supplied by: Hampshire Police - Thank you!
Equipment Supplied Thank you	Portable Petrol Generator - Approximately 3,000 watts. Ideally waterproof and able to be used in inclement weather. Supplied by: Eastleigh Carnival Association thanks to John Edwards.
Materials Pending	We are in need of envelopes to send out mailshots to our members and supporters. We currently use about 200 per year.
Skill Supplied Thank you	We need some help and technical assistance to fit a pneumatic telescopic mast into out Incident Control Vehicle. It is to be fitted in the rear storage compartment and will go up through the roof. Fitted by: VFS Limited - Eastleigh - Thank you!
Equipment Supplied Thank you	Mains flush inlet socket (like those fitted to caravans) to enable us to run our Incident Control Vehicle from an external mains supply. It will need to be waterproof and reasonably rugged.
Donation	We would be grateful if someone could help us towards our fuel costs. Everytime we are called out we have to pay for the fuel to get our Incident Control Vehicle and equipment to the search area which could be anywhere in Hampshire.
Skill	We need someone to help us manage our collection boxes. We currently have 60 boxes of which in the region of 40 are out at any one time. The boxes need to be checked and collected and new ones issued every 1-3 months depending on location.
Misc	We are looking for people to play the part of missing people, members of the press or public, police officers, relatives etc. during exercises. This can be a one off or on a semi regular basis.
Equipment Supplied Thank you	Basic took kit for Incident Control Vehicle. All we are looking for are the basic tools needed to make minor repairs or adjustments to the vehicle such as: Replacing a spark plug, changing a wheel, replacing a lamp, tightening a nut etc. Thank you Richard
