We're so proud of our Water Rescue Team & crews from Bishop, Durham, Stanhope, & Middleton, who at 5pm last night responded to a vehicle in the water at Westgate. On arrival our crews took immediate action, in what was challenging conditions, to ensure the driver was rescued.

After 2 years of fundraising including bingo nights, raffles and a day running the charity cafe at Kelso Races, they totted up enough to buy us a lightweight AED which will make it easier for us to carry on the hill.
