Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service and the Ambulance Service took part in simulated rescues on board the Marine Team's Pilot Boat on Friday to test emergency incident response plans.

The exercise involved multiple rescues in confined spaces on board the vessel, with crews using breathing apparatus to locate the 'casualties' and set up of equipment to lift them from the vessel.

A great day of teamwork, learning and skills building!
