Advanced Whitewater Rescue Course

The WRT A starts where the WRT course leaves off. After reviewing core river rescue skills we start working in the river environment at night, including night searching exercises. Technical rescues are also a continuing theme for on this course as we learn to rescue victims out of the vertical realms of steep sided river gorges.

Course Aims:

We aim to give rescuers a thorough knowledge of rope rescue techniques along with self rescue skills in the vertical environment. We also aim to give rescuers a thorough training in the dangers and problems related with night operations around swiftwater rescues particularly with regard to search and rescue at night.

"Very interesting & worthwhile. I am now much more confident to participate in a technical rescue scenario!"
