Had a great day getting to grips with the role of MRT and learning a huge amount about clinical and operational approaches in challenging environments. Here is to the second practical day tomorrow!

Today, British Transport Police kindly invited us to join a multi-agency training day with London Ambulance Service HART and @londonfire. Joint working is key to our mass public gathering events, and joint training helps us build working relationships outside of events!

Getting ready for events means practicing common and essential skills as realistically as possible. Today was the first of our regular training days, incorporating clinical skills, MRT-specific procedures and scenarios.

As we prepare to cover the first concerts of the season, our training weekend covered core MRT skills and use of equipment, alongside approaches to patients at extremes of age.

We have teams supporting the Arsenal Women and Crystal Palace F.C. victory parades today - there to rapidly assess, perform life-saving interventions, and extricate anyone who becomes seriously unwell or injured in the crowd.

No team is an island... Last weekend, we joined ambulance crews and first aiders at the Amex for a day of joint training. Training together outside of events helps us develop a shared mental model and learn from each other's skills!

Last night, we were at London Stadium supporting the crowd at Sam Fender, and Emirates Stadium for Robbie Williams. Being in the pit allows us to respond to medical incidents rapidly, entering the crowd if necessary. We'll be back for night 2 of Robbie Williams tonight!
