Bronze medals @LdnYouthGames in Netball Competition. Fantastic performance @PhysEdSCPS We are so proud of you all! We came 3rd out of 32 London boroughs losing only one game by one goal in semis. Well done to everyone who took part! @Year6SCPS #fantastic #netball #performance

@TheAA_UK Don't worry. There will be a complaint on its way to you once I finally get my family home.

[Paul Wheeler @walkupit]

@TheAA_UK not quite "big enough" to get my family including two children back home without needing three separate recovery vehicles and a taxi it seems. Dropping us at the services to wait 5 hours for another recovery truck with no updates constitutes being "the best" does it?

[Paul Wheeler @walkupit]

@TheAA_UK I get that but no updates for 5 hours other than when we phoned you and when the final recovery truck turns up they tell me they don't have room for us all and WE needed to call YOU back to arrange a taxi. Maybe you need to be "bigger and better" at communicating.

We are at Alexandra Palace attending The Cycle Show & London E-Bike Festival 2022, where some members of our bike team got to meet a couple of their cycling heroes.

LONSAR is celebrating Volunteer Recognition Day with a big thank you to our entire team. We come from all walks of life, but all share a goal to help end preventable loss of life in London.

[LONDON Search & Rescue @LONDONSARUK]

Everyone in LONSAR dedicates a lot of personal time in training to national standards and attending callouts. Our Navigation Lead, Al is taking his training to another level and running the 2022 London Marathon to raise much needed funds for our charity.

Water can play a significant role in many of our searches in London with its many rivers, reservoirs, streams, lakes, and ponds.

"Why does London need a Search & Rescue Team?"
It's a question I get asked a lot when telling people about @LONDONSARUK and the work we do.
