On this day of remembrance we also remember one of our own. Last year we lost a true hero in Simon Woodmore.

Simon was a truly remarkable man that led an equally remarkable life.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them.

As we embark on our journey towards UN INSARAG classification, we're hugely honoured to have the support and mentorship of our friends at @akutdernegi, a Turkish USAR team that have recently undertaken the classification process. It's hugely appreciated!

Huge thanks to @LloydsBritish for testing and inspecting all of our working at height kit. Essential checks ahead of our annual exercise next week.

Great to link up with @MSAsafety at the Emergency Services Show today and check out their awesome kit. Super appreciative to receive a batch of new F2XR helmets. Looking forward to putting them to good use! @MSAsafetyEurope

Please help us continue our work

Support us

The more people who know about us the greater the likelihood of us receiving donations. We'd be delighted if you wanted to become an ambassador for our cause and be an advocate of our work. If you think you can offer your support in other ways, such as equipment supplies or services, then please do let us know.

Nominate us

Employers, supermarkets, schools, chemists and department stores donate regularly to charity and invite nominations for a “Charity of the Year”. Remember us next time your employer is inviting charity nominations. Keep us informed of any nominations by email so we can lavish credit where it’s due!

Donate today

Sadly, as an organisation we face a continual struggle to raise funds. People rarely consider a charity such as ours until a disaster hits the headlines, even then many people send donations to the DEC (Disasters Emergency Committee) as they see their advertisements on national prime time media.
