Last night's training at VRA Rescue NSW Manilla. Pass litter over rough terrain and cut material with hacksaw, reciprocating saw and angle grinder . Either being the first time on the tools or an old hand, it's important to keep your skills honed for when the time comes in emergency situations.

Well done to the team who turned up for training. A great effort.
