SARA Wyre Forest (Kidderminster)

SARA WF - Kidderminster Station

SARA’s Wyre Forest station is located at Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Services (HWFRS) Kidderminster Fire Station, The combined resources of SARA and HWFRS ensures the area is better prepared for any local water rescue incidents and large scale flooding responses.

The station is the base for our land search team and the inland water & flood rescue team. It houses three SARA inshore rescue boats – SARA 8, SARA 9 and SARA 10 – alongside our landrover Mobile 4 and an incident support unit (ISU) vehicle. The team also has a set of inflatable rescue sleds and a large raft.

SARA is now tasked by H&W Fire Control as well as responding to requests from West Mercia Police. We cover the River Severn and all adjoining waterways etc., as well as providing a land/bank search rescue team as and when required.
