Portfolio

Our Portfolio includes:

• London Fire Brigade - Swiftwater and flood rescue training for Fire and Rescue Unit personnel.
  
  RIG have now been training London Fire Brigade Firefighters to all levels of Swiftwater and Flood Rescue Training for over 5 years.  In that time we have trained over 500 firefighters from Module 1 (Water Awareness), through to Module 4 (Advanced Power Boat Handler).  We continue to train London Fire Brigade, who provide 55% of the National Flood Response Assets at both our dedicated Water Rescue Training Facility - Nene Whitewater Centre, Northampton and Shepperton Weir.

• South East Regional Management Board - Swiftwater and flood rescue training for Fire and Rescue Unit personnel.
  
  RIG won the contract to train the 9 Fire Brigades who make up the SE Regional Management Board in 2008.  These Brigades include: Buckinghamshire, East Sussex, Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Kent, Oxfordshire, Royal Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex.  This contract is ongoing with training being conducted at both our dedicated Water Rescue Training Facility - Nene Whitewater Centre, Northampton and Shepperton Weir.

• Aggregate Industries - Confined Space Access and Rescue (CONSAR) and Safe Working at Height (WaH) Programmes.
  
  RIG have been providing expert advice, confined space rescue teams and extraction industry-specific access and rescue training to Aggregate Industries since 2007.  Our CONSAR and WaH training programmes form an integral part of Aggregate Industries Safe Systems of Work with access and rescue techniques explicitly designed for entry to and egress from complex and dangerous machinery.  This programme has been run Nationally and is about to be rolled out into Europe and Scandinavia.

• South West Water - Confined Space Access and Rescue in Unstable Atmospheres.
  
  RIG have been training SWW operatives in access to and egress from confined spaces with potentially lethal unstable atmospheres since 2008.  Our training allows SWW operatives to carry out the first response to evacuate casualties from complex and dangerous areas in order to save life.  This is mission critical for employees working in environments where asphyxiation is likely to occur well before the Emergency Services have the time to respond.

In addition, we have provided training and support to:

• 26 Fire and Rescue Services from Isle of Wight to North Yorkshire - Specialist Rescue Team training and equipment management support.

• Metropolitan Police Service and 15 Police Constabularies - Development of Working at Height Regulations Guidance Notes.

• Devon and Cornwall Police - Rope access and height intervention training.

• Eden Project - Generation of Work at Height and Confined Space Policy, full training support and expert height related safety cover.

• The Clancy Group, Coors Brewery, Patheon, and Vesta - Confined space training and consultancy.

• Babcock, Lanes for Drains, QinetiQ, Mendip Rail, BW Tunnelling - Confined Space Rescue Cover.
