It's not often the red carpet is rolled out for us, but last night we celebrated our 26 Berkshire Lowland Search & Rescue colleagues who were presented with the King's Coronation Medal.

On Saturday one of our Trustees and operational members David undertook an amazing parachute jump from 15,000 feet which included a 60 second freefall at speeds of 125mph.

Congratulations to our ten new Licensed Search Technicians! This weekend, they successfully completed the Search and Rescue Techniques course, marking the end of nine months of intensive training.

Late last night (06/07/24) the Team were called out for a high risk vulnerable missing person from the Donnington Area of Newbury, supported by OxSAR and Berkshire Search and Rescue Dogs.

We are pleased to announce we now have a presence on YouTube, starting with our first promotional video, inspired by a "Leave a Light On" by Tom Walker. Please take a few moments to view the video. 

Its been a busy 6 months for BLSAR, we have been involded in 37 incidents (inc assists), and 83 exercises, some in conjunction with RBFRS to fine tune our joint capabilities.
