[QUOTE="Agriland RSS, post: 8175673, member: 105608"] Written by William Kellett from Agriland [RIGHT][IMG]https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/cdn.agriland.co.uk/uploads/2022/06/Castlewellan-pic-1-640x360.jpg[/IMG][/RIGHT] Agriculture Environment and Rural Affairs Minister, Edwin Poots MLA has visited Castlewellan Forest Park where he saw at first-hand some of the new rescue equipment funded for Mourne Mountain Rescue under the Rural Community Rescue Scheme. The minister was able to experience a drive in the team’s amphibious all-terrain rescue vehicle, funded under the scheme and was introduced to some of the highly trained search and rescue dogs operated by the Search And Rescue Dog Association (SARDA). Having been driven into the lake in one of the new amphibious vehicles Minister Poots said: “It was great to be able to see first-hand this new rescue equipment which will assist Mourne Mountain Rescue in accessing difficult to reach terrain. “The equipment is also going to help save many lives going forward.” [URL='https://www.agriland.ie/farming-news/category/n-ireland/']DAERA[/URL] has recently funded Mourne Mountain Rescue £207,000 grant aid towards new equipment including two 4×4 vehicles specially kitted out and an Argo Cat cross country amphibious rescue vehicle. The minster continued: “I was also privileged to meet some of SARDA’s excellent canine team. “Everyone should feel safe now enjoying our countryside.” SARDA showed the minister one of their two new 4 x 4 dog carrying vehicles funded by DAERA, after receiving a grant of just under £94,000. Both organisations also benefitted from new PPE and other key equipment such as mobile defibrillators.
