WORCESTERSHIRE RAYNET
Mid Severn Valley Group
The group operates in the county of Worcestershire and is part of The Radio Amateurs Emergency Network, Zone 9. The group participates in numerous charity events throughout the year providing radio communications on behalf of the user service involved in the event. E.g. St. John Ambulance, Red Cross, Police, Fire, Ambulance etc. These events act as self training exercises to prepare ourselves for our role in assisting County Emergency Planning and the user services in the event of a major civil disaster. However, we do try to enjoy ourselves at the same time! The group's contact point is at various places on the page so if you would like further information or to meet up for a chat then give us a call.
