Ruth Lee Ltd Help SVLB
10th January 2006
Ruth Lee Ltd, manufacturers of Rescue Training Dummies, have kindly donated two Water Rescue Training Dummies to SVLB, helping us to train to save lives!
Ruth Lee currently supply 100% of the UKs Fire Services, Police Forces and Ambulance Brigades with rescue training dummies and developed their water rescue dummy with help from the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution), Greater Manchester Fire Service Water Incident Support Section and the Royal Navy.
The company also have a 5 year contract to supply the British Ministry of Defence (MOD). All the UK's international airports use their products, along with several aviation training centres.
The addition of these dummies to SVLB's training resources means that the team will be able to train with realistic life sized and weighted dummies ensuring that the teams search, cliff rescue and casualty handling skills are the best they can be.
The team and management of SVLB would like to extend their thanks to Ruth Lee and their Managing Director Ms Susan Edwards for their support.
Pictures will be posted here of the dummies in use as soon as we can get them online! Check back soon!
