National Road Traffic Collision & Trauma Challenge Day

Ashbourne Fire Station, Co Meath

Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th March 2012

Rescue Organisation Ireland will be holding the next National RTC & Trauma Challenge in Ashbourne Fire Station, Co Meath on the weekend after St Patricks weekend – Sat 24th & Sun 25th March.



It will be a 2 day event involving extrication and trauma challenges.

There will be a standard (20 min) and rapid (10 min) challenge for each extrication team, one scenario on each day. There will also be 2 trauma scenarios, one on each day. As well as teams from around the country we will also have some visiting international teams taking part – from Britain (confirmed) and Spain (awaiting confirmation). (The Russian Rescue team has also expressed interest.)

THE CLOSING DATE FOR REGISTRATIONS IS FEB 3RD.



As always the event will be free & open to attendance by the public, and should also prove very interesting for any emergency services personnel in particular who wish to come along and watch.
