Joint incidents

The UK emergency services are working more and more closely to provide and support each other,


This picture taken last carnival shows the team assisting the air ambulance crew loading a patient at Peveril Point.


The team will hopefully be signing an agreement with the South Western Ambulance shortly to provide a co responder scheme in Swanage.
This scheme provides extra training for the team, extra life saving equipment and if the team are out on patrol and available, the Coastguard will attend 1st until an ambulance arrives.
We will keep you posted
