:: how to call for help in the outdoors and what else you should do ::
30th August 2021
Do you know how to get help in an emergency if you are outdoors, in a remote area, inaccessible by road?
In this episode we talk about help, Richard draws upon his decade of previous experience volunteering for a local mountain rescue team. In emergency situations do you know who you should be calling to receive expert help? How would you contact somebody who can assist you? What should you do if you are in a scenario where you are awaiting help?
The wild areas of the globe attract adventure. They are places to be seen and experienced, however this should be done with eyes wide open to every eventuality and with a plan in place as to what should occur if something goes wrong. Wherever you go exploring you should always be aware of what help is available to you if you need it, and how to raise the alarm if needs be. If you are travelling in a group, this should be common knowledge amongst you all as a contingency. As they say, fail to plan, plan to fail.
