Emergency Response

We don't just put out fires and rescue cats from trees you know. We also play a key role in a number of other types of incidents that can occur in the county.

Who would you call if a chemical plant released a load of toxic gas or if a petrol tanker crashed on the motorway, releasing volatile fuel all over the road?

What if there was a terrorist attack involving chemical or biological weapons? What if there was a massive forest fire? - By carrying out 'Emergency Planning' we learn just what to do if disaster strikes.
