Financial support from Redwood Technologies Group, a Bracknell-based technology firm, is to fund the purchase of lifesaving equipment for Berkshire Lowland Search and Rescue.

Redwood funding will purchase specialist, lightweight defibrillators for the primary search and rescue resource for Thames Valley Police’s team of volunteers, who search for high risk vulnerable individuals.

Sean Taylor, CEO at Redwood Technologies Group, said: “Although we are a global company, we ensure that each of our offices around the world support the local communities where they are located.

“In the UK we are proud to have been established in Berkshire for nearly 30 years and delighted to have assisted tens of local voluntary groups and charities over that time.

“BLSAR carries out mission-critical work for the Thames Valley Police and as a charity depends heavily on contributions like ours. We are very proud to be able to support the valuable activities that BLSAR undertake.”

“We rely on donations such as those from businesses in the Berkshire area to continue our work for the Thames Valley Police, and would like to encourage others to consider donating to or volunteering alongside us.”
