I was out on Tuesday night with the Avon Community Resilience Team practicing night navigation and search techniques in the dark. We are lucky to have skilled volunteers including a Mountaineering Instructor to help train members. The team are all volunteers ready to support the emergency services and local authorities in major emergencies across Avon, including Bath.
Over the past two years I have been on a number of deployments including major fire service exercises and night patrols along the river Avon in Bath, which are carried out in collaboration with other voluntary groups, and needed particularly when students have big social events in town.
The team always welcome new volunteers so if you are interested in helping your community.
