Firefighters from Worcester and Malvern recently took part in the UKRO Rope Rescue Competition hosted by Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service.

Over two days, crews faced a series of high-pressure rescue scenarios designed to test their skills, teamwork, decision making and operational effectiveness. Competing against 12 teams from across the UK the combined crew achieved an excellent 6th place overall.

A fantastic effort by everyone involved demonstrating professionalism, commitment and a dedication to continuous improvement. Well done all! 👏 🚒
