We thought we would update you on the Kayak Karriage or Water Response Unit if you will. The attached image is an artist's impression of how the vehicle will look in the team livery.....pretty snazzy right? We think so and really cannot wait to share more images.

It's International Volunteers Day today. It is time to recognise the efforts that volunteers around the globe put in to make world a better place. Volunteers like this handsome devil, who spent a cold damp Sunday in a bivvy bag hiding from Search dogs and handlers. #IVD2019
