Well done to all our guys who successfully completed their ‘Working in Water’ training last week. The cold and rainy conditions combined with the fast-flowing rapids at the Tees Barrage facility should have prepared them well for their future adventures looking after assets in and around water. Even some of our Managers were put through their paces, expanding their understanding of water to support planning these types of projects in the future.
Thanks to Paul Renwick from Rescue North East for leading the session for us, covering Hydrology, Hazard Identification & Risk Assessment, Scene Management, Moving in Swift Water, Crossing Techniques and knowing your limitations.
