Visit from Rossendale and Pendle Mountain Rescue

Beavers enjoyed a visit from Rossendale and Pendle Mountain Rescue Team recently.

Beavers met "Doc" the Mountain Rescue Dog, who made short work of finding a "missing" Beaver hidden behind the Scout Hut.

Beavers tried to sniff out a scent using their noses, but decided that it was best left to "Doc".

Turquoise Beaver very bravely volunteered to act as a casualty who needed rescuing and was strapped in a special stretcher and imbolised, while Beavers made sure she safely fastened in.

Red Beaver also volunteered to be a stretcher case, but wouldn't let me publish the photo!!!!

On the count of 3, Beavers (along with a couple of adults),carefully lifted Purple Beaver up in the stretcher , ready to transport down the mountain!

Beavers also learned a little first aid, which hopefully they will remember if ever they are in situation which needs their help.
