Always good to look at new ideas for water safety and rescue. Out with Cumbria Fire and Rescue today playing with remotely operated rescue tools. Our general conclusions were that these could be brilliant for high footfall areas next to the water enabling a trained operator to help someone in moments. Never a replacement for personal water rescue training but an exciting development in the field of water safety.

Learning Zone
Brilliant to work with Cumbria Fire and Rescue last week on their Rescue 3 SRT Instructor training programme.
Lots of conversation about hitting the learning zone; the sweet spot between challenge and support where real learning occurs. Noticeably this was often created by playful experimentation in a safe environment - you know when you hit that spot was level of engagement goes through the roof.
Here we are using reach poles for entrapments in energised water and learning rescue techniques for weir rescue. We all know weirs can be lethal - but with the right safety framework we can train hard to ensure we are a good as we can be for real emergencies.
