Yesterday you saw Rescue Officers reach a casualty who is stuck in the mud which is a physically challenging element of Mud Rescue. Today you will see the how we recover the team + casualty using a winch recovery system. Maritime and Coastguard Agency #999coastguard
This is great and will really help to provide #skillsforlife to children in Dorset. It has been great to help facilitate this with both my @firstdorset and Maritime and Coastguard Agency hat on!

Thanks to Greenock Coastguard Rescue Team Maritime and Coastguard Agency and Ardrossan Coastguard for delivering an eventful "hands on" afternoon to #PSYV Paisley & Inverclyde on their role within the Maritime and Coastguard Agency as a category 1 Emergency Service. #HMCoastguard, #GreenockFireStation
This afternoons service was to launch and take paramedics to Holy Island for an unwell person due to the tide being in and causeway closed. Working along side HolyIslandCoastguard who looked after the casualty and brought them to the jetty for being taken back to Seahouses. #RNLI
