The Queen’s Award for Enterprise is the UK’s most prestigious accolade and recognised Royal endorsement awarded for outstanding achievement. The category of award Reach and Rescue have won is Innovation, for our long-reach telescopic water rescue pole. The self-developed long-reach telescopic water rescue pole is the only one of its kind worldwide. It enables emergency services, search and rescue teams and members of the public to conduct swift, directionally accurate rescues by retrieving casualties from safe distances. The pole minimises the danger posed to the rescuer whilst also boosting casualty survival chances. This award is an incredible achievement which wouldn't have been possible without the hard work of our dedicated team.
