On Tuesday I attended a meeting of the UK SAR Operators Group. There was a wide ranging agenda incorporating just about all types of Search and Rescue in the UK from nland water to mountain, cave and coastal. We had an update from the RAF SAR on the proposed changes the helicopter service and how it might affect rescue teams in the future and apart from bigger, better, (noisier?) machines that will be black and orange it would appear that things will carry on much as they do now. The meeting was based in the depths of the Lancashire Countryside in the forest of Bowland and very pretty it was too. The next meting is at the end of November so more updates then.
