A river rescue symposium is being held on 14-15 March in Llangollen. It’s a well organised event run over 2 days with both theory and practical workshops. It normally gets booked quite quickly. There is a lot of information on the site but if you want to know a bit more then contact Paul Haggett our paddle development officer as I believe he has attended in the past.

Note this is a few weeks before some of us are attending a whitewater safety and rescue course.
