Calling all bees to support Amiee and North West BUMBLEance ~ BY ~ Susan McCabe Working in partnership with the National Ambulance service BUMBLeance provides the highest standards in professional medical care together with a top of the range entertainment facility designed and tailored for children.

BUMBLeance was created by parents who understand the struggle of caring and transporting disabled and seriously ill children who require transportation to and from specialist treatment centres, pre and post-surgical appointments, respite and hospice trips. The Children’s Chemo Cab, will also allow for children to be carried to and from Crumlin Children’s hospital for chemotherapy treatment.

BUMBLeance includes a critical care and clinical intervention services to help children who may require additional specialist care

The service also does Angel trips where they reunite a terminally ill child one last time with their family before

they go to heaven.

BUMBLeance is owned by the Saoirse Foundation, and was founded in 2010 by Mary and Tony heffernan after their

daughter Saoirse was diagnosed with Batten Disease. Saoirse died in January 2011 at the age of five. her only sibling, Liam, who also had Batten disease, died in 2014 aged five. The heffernan’s put their energy into helping others who are following a similar road to the

one they travelled.

The Saoirse Foundation is a registered non-profit charity dedicated to making positive life impacts for sick children.

BUMBLeance provides a first class professional medical team including trained paramedics and eMTs onboard. The interior and exterior of the BUMBLeance maintains the bright and colourful images that children love and it includes the latest technologies to keep children entertained while travelling.

In addition to all these features children can receive well wishes directly from the public and loved ones using the onboard Wi-Fi for live social media streaming and Skype.

Ballina girl Amiee O’Loughlin is a regular BUMBLeance user. She relies totally on this vital service for her multiple trips to a Dublin hospital. Amiee has very challenging health issues – which includes a chronic lung condition compounded by severe scoliosis – found travelling to Dublin very difficult and uncomfortable.

Amiee also has a lot of medical equipment she need

to travel with. BUMBLeance changed all of that and she now lies down comfortably watching TV with a qualified paediatrics paramedics on board to deal with her medical need as they arise.

BUMBLeance is very supportive and has a very positive impact on Amiee’s life because it’s not about going to the hospital anymore, it’s about the magic of travelling on the BUMBLeance.

Due to the increasing numbers of very sick children in Mayo and the surrounding areas another BUMBLeance is to be based in Mayo.

At present there is over a 100 children availing of the north west service.

BUMBLeance relies totally on donations with costings of €84,000 for the northwest vehicle and €34,000 annual contributions.

Amiee lives life to the full and along with her family and friends organise on-going fundraisers to keep the wheels of BUMBLeance rolling.
