The aim is to ensure the town is full of people with knowledge if someone gets into trouble and needs to be rescued.
It is understood that council workers were involved in the rescue of a man from the River Severn in ShrewsburyMembers of the council's operational staff took part in the RNLI Waterside Responder training at the fire station in Castlefields last Friday.
“This type of training will give our staff the extra confidence to use the throw lines should they find themselves in those circumstances.” "The session was really well received, and it was great to see the operatives get involved with both the theory and practical elements. The town council staff are around the areas on a daily basis and, like us, have the chance to have conversations and share knowledge on things like water safety. We welcome more opportunities to work with our partners in the future to keep Shropshire safe.
