2018 - Looking Back - July

July's training saw us working with the Dorset Police drone unit to simulate the search and rescue of a casualty at the base of Old Harry and a water rescue scenario involving two injured casualties who'd injured themselves falling from the Stone Quay area.
For Exercise

The water rescue exercise became a real incident when a member of public who'd been watching us lost consciousness and collapsed on the Stone Quay and was treated by the team.  He was later found to have broken his leg when he fell.

For Real!


A further rescue took place at Shell Bay where an individual had fallen awkwardly in shallow water, injuring his back in the process.
For Real again!


At the end of the month, the perfect weather broke in a big way as the town celebrated its Carnival day.
Wet Wet Wet

By the end of the month, the incidents tally was at 96.
