With COVID restrictions being gradually lifted throughout the summer, 2021 was a much busier year than 2020 for our volunteers. First we should record, that if it wasn’t for our volunteers and others who supported the rescues, there are three people alive today, who probably wouldn’t be, but for the actions of these volunteers.
Also positive news at the start of the season, was grant aid support from the Welsh Government through Sports Wales. A huge amount of equipment was acquired with over £10k of financial assistance.
Training for all sessions was well supported this year and the following qualifications were achieved:

NVBLQ
Geraint Rees
Oliver Coborn
Jamie Coborn
Lewis Hopkins
