For the first time since 1996, Ireland will host the bi-annual Ireland and UK Mountain Rescue Conference. Entitled ‘Mountain Rescue – our future role’, the event will take place at Dublin City University on 11 and 12 September 2010.
The anticipated 450 delegates will hear national and international speakers on mountain rescue medicine and equipment, and see the latest technology in action over the two days. The conference also gives delegates a chance to share experiences and knowledge with colleagues from around the world.
Subjects include water rescue, HART, trauma/casualty care, the Cockermouth floods, rescue on St Sundays Crag, GPS and mapping software, mountain medicine, ICESAR School, SARCALL and a host of other topics.
The conference is expected to be over-subscribed but spaces are currently available at €95 per person for members of mountain rescue teams, which includes accommodation, meals and workshops. For more information or to download a booking form log on to: www.mrconference2010.ie
