Our Responders are trained to deploy and carry out our mission “to provide practical aid and support to Front Line Emergency Services, Local Authorities and Communities in the event of Public Emergency, Severe Weather Incidents, National Crisis and Major Incidents.”
Our vision is to have Response Teams based across the country, able to deploy a fully equipped response team to developing situations, anywhere in the UK, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
