title: In touch.
abstract: Scotland's former rugby captain Gavin Hastings last month presented Margaret Ferguson with emergency equipment to help her provide care to the 180 island residents of Raasay, east of Skye. Ms Ferguson, a district nurse and midwife, is the only health care professional on the island. The bag of equipment, worth £1,000, has been produced by the British Association of Immediate Care (BASICS) Scotland and paid for by the Sandpiper Trust, established by the family of teenager Sandy Dickson, who drowned while on holiday in Canada.
