This evening thirteen of the fifteen new Probationary Team members we decided to accept into the team on Sunday 7th November, attended their first Wednesday evening Training Exercise with the whole team tonight.
Spending over two hours in the company of very experienced team call out list members Fred Taylor and Mike Marsh, the thirteen spent their evening familiarising themselves with the location of search and rescue kit items on our five team vehicles, and being given (a very quick!) overview of how to use some of the kit.
Our new Probationary members as a group will next be out with the team on Remembrance Sunday.
