It will be a 2 pit extrication challenge with a maximum of 12 teams taking part. There is a maximum of 10 team places for the Trauma Challenge.

Unfortunately, due to logistical issues with the venue at the Historic Dockyard we will not be running the HGV Challenge this year. Instead, the Education team will be running a guided practical workshop entitled “Lifting plans (suspension management)”. We apologise for any disappointment. The HGV Challenge will return next year.
We are thrilled to announce the UKRO Conference and invite you to share your knowledge and expertise in a peer-to-peer workshop themed “Road to Rescue.”
REGIONAL CHALLENGE: Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service are hosting a regional UKRO challenge on Saturday 14 September 2024! Two disciplines to take part in: extrication and trauma (each limited to ten teams, so get in there quick!)
IMPORTANT UPDATE!
Unfortunately we are cancelling the Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue regional challenge which was scheduled for the 27th July 2024.
This is due to a logistical issue beyond our control. We hope to see you in future events!
UKRO has today published an addition to the Competitors’ Handbook 2024 with a suggested medical kit list for Water Teams. Medics should review the list and ensure that had the necessary equipment for this year’s Challenge.
