Following the early morning call out on Wednesday it was back to training in the evening.
Some of the team were involved in a search and rescue training exercise, with a casualty in the Roseberry Topping area. On finding the casualty, just above Newton Woods ,the heavens opened. In bleak conditions the team put together both the rescue stretcher and the wheel, moved down the hillside then dismantled the equipment. On returning to the RV in the car park, the rain stopped!!
The conditions were a good test for the team Helly Hansen outer layer clothing.
The photo shows the view the volunteer casualty had prior to the rain.
Other members were staying dry at the base, introducing the team to 22 people interested in joining. The evening provided a snapshot of the various activities ranging from Support, Water, Tech,Medical, Comms, Vehicles to Search Dogs.
