Event Medical Cover - Loch Ness Beast Race

We had a rather wet day proving medical cover for the Loch Ness Beast Race, which was in stark contrast to the beautiful weather earlier on in the week when when went for a pre event recce.

With a yellow met office weather warning for rain, the Beast Race was always going to be a bit tougher than the previous years sunshine, despite the poor forecast over 2100 attended to raise money for Chest Heart and Strike Scotland.

The heavy rain gave us the opportunity to put our specialist equipment to good use, with our ATV doing multiple trips to recover competitors back to our treatment tent.

Great day providing medical cover for Aviemore Triathlon 2019 - what a day for it! We had a team at the water, covering the swim section and a tent at the transition area. We had our Polaris ATV for mobile access to the mountain biking and run sections.

2 Day (16hr) Outdoor First Aid Course - 12th and 13th June 2019

A great couple of days on our 2 day Outdoor First Aid course. All the participants were keen to get involved and all enjoyed learning through our practical based scenarios.

Great wild conditions to highlight how important emergency shelters and blizzard blankets are in the mountains regardless of what injuries you are treating!
