On 29th of September 2024, 13 MCR members passed their MREW Remote Rescue Medical Technician (previously known as "Cas Care") course, which allows them to provide advanced first aid to people in remote environments. This course has been running since the start of the year, with several training sessions to cover all the skills that are required. The final series of training sessions was held on the 28th of September in Goughs Cave, where the management of the Cheddar Gorge show caves kindly allowed us to use their excellent showcase and adventure caving route to recreate realistic underground scenarios.
