Delamere re-visited - 6 April

This evening Party Leaders were tested by having to take control of a search with only the guidance of a Police Search Advisor.  Party Leaders, Colin, Jim and Jeff quickly decided and organised team members and search priorities to search for a missing despondent male.  The teams were tasked effectively to search the area around Primrose Hill, Delamere and the hazardous area of Urchins Kitchen.

The key priorities for tonights training were:

  • Management of 'find-site' safety
  • Identification of access and egress points
  • Effective casualty evacuation of a live casualty

Many thanks go to Dave for arranging the session and also to Jim, Colin and Jeff and all the members for responding so well and efficently to an usual search scenario and braving the elements on such a dark and wet night!
