Fire and Rescue Service pulling together in national effort to help flood victims.

The Fire and Rescue Service (FRS) is pulling out all the stops to help flood victims as the weather takes it's toll around the country. Specialist High Volume Pumps (HVPs), boats, flood support teams and hose layers are being deployed from all around the country to help those struggling as the current torrential rain continues to wreak havoc.

At one time Gloucestershire had up to 4 HVPs in operation along with a flood support team and a boat from Mid West Wales FRS which were all working to prevent a boat in Tewksbury Marina from colliding with King Johns bridge.

Oxfordshire have also had two HVPs in use as well as boats from Essex FRS and GMC FRS which have also been used to help stricken communities. In Hereford & Worcester 20 people required rescue from moving water at Sedgeberrow in Worcestershire and this was achieved using boats from Merseyside, Mid West Wales, Cheshire and GMC along with colleagues from the RNLI who also used 4 boats. Nottinghamhire FRS also sent a specialist Technical Rescue Team to assist .

High Volume Pumps have also been dispatched to assist in Northamptonshire, East Sussex and Surrey.

The specialist teams and equipment have been mobilised to assist the flood-hit areas from the National Coordinating Centre which is based at West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service. Assistant Chief Officer Paul Cummins said "The National Coordination Centre has once again proved it's worth in ensuring that we can quickly despatch specialist equipment and officers from all around the country.Thanks to the work that has gone into pre-planning and the superb efforts of our mobilisng team, some of whom have come in offf-duty to help, , we ve been able keep on top of a very difficult situation. The NCC will keep working until we are sure that our colleagues around the country have what they need to help communities get back on their feet."
