At our school we have a Ferno Spineboard. This requires four lifeguards to operate it to immobilise a person with a spinal injury and takes quite a while to get the casualty on it. As we have lifeguards on duty in the pool, a Pool Extraction Board is perfect for our needs. It only needs two lifeguards, it is fast to operate and therefore more efficient in the treatment of a casualty!

We are holding a fancy dress stretcher run/obstacle course! The RLSS will be attending with a PX board and literature. They are bringing prizes for the best board/fancy dress and the winners of the run!
