My guest on the podcast today is Ian Greenman. Ian is Director & Trustee of UKRO

Today, we’re shining a light on the United Kingdom Rescue Organisation a leader in improving rescue standards across the UK. For over 30 years, UKRO has been at the forefront of innovation and development in professional rescue, uniting rescue services to enhance their skills and better serve the public.

Were also discussing the recent National Rescue Challenge Event help on 26th to 28th Sept 2024 in the historic Dockyard Portsmouth.

The event is a chance for emergency services personnel to share techniques across all rescue disciplines.

UKRO is powered by dedicated volunteers from the Fire and Rescue and Medical sectors, both serving and retired, who are passionate about advancing rescue practices. With the support of the Board of Trustees, UKRO ensures its services and products meet the evolving needs of rescue professionals, adapting to both existing and emerging risks.

A highlight of UKRO’s initiatives is the Rescue Challenge, which offers a safe environment for professionals to test new techniques and equipment across various disciplines, including vehicle extrication, trauma management, rope rescue, water rescue, and Urban Search and Rescue. These challenges promote information exchange and peer learning, helping to elevate standards nationwide.

Join us as we delve deeper into the impact of UKRO and the incredible work being done to save lives and improve rescue operations.
