Rope Rescue

We provide High and Low Angle Rope Rescue Training to national and International Standards.

INTRODUCTION

The use of rope in rescue work is ubiquitous and should be a part of virtually every Rescuer's tool kit whether on a

Collapsed Structure Search and Rescue (CSSR) / Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) Rubble Pile or a Water Rescue incident. But it is an excellent bit of kit that can be used by itself to help rescuers access someone or even to help recovery them to a place of safety.

We provide "Standard" and bespoke courses as well as more tailored and specially developed courses.

For example in many parts of the world we can get the 'proper industry rated' rescue ropes and harnesses and hardware to provide training which is recognised and compliant with international standards, such as the NFPA 1670 standards to Awareness, Operator or Technician Level.

However, in some countries such as parts of Pakistan, Indian, The Philippines, Thailand, Sri Lanka, etc. ropes and lines are being used but not in the 'International' way with thin low-stretch (static) "kernmantel" rope such as the use of "manilla rope" to make a chair know or the use of 'rescue sheets.' In these cases we have worked with what we have in these parts of the world, many of them LEDCs (Less Economically Developed Countries).
