Unlimited Access understand that the safety of your employees is of paramount importance.  Hiring one of our Technical Rescue Teams not only means that you are complying with the law, but also demonstrates that you take the safety of your staff seriously.  Our rescue teams regularly practise technical rescue scenarios both in confined spaces, working at height and using rope access.  Rest assured you’re in safe hands.  

A typical rescue team will consist of three to four team members, each with IRATA Rope Access qualifications & City & Guilds High Risk Confined Spaces & Rescue certs.  In addition, our team members are all experienced members of some of the various Cave Rescue teams so they know what they're doing.  One team member will supervise, with the remaining two or three team members stood by ready to effect rescue should the need arise.  However, in some circumstances (stretcher carries etc) a larger rescue team may be required.
