Deputy Equine Manager nominated for prestigious certificate of recognition by Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service
Nottingham Trent University’s Deputy Equine Manager, Cath Hake, has been nominated to receive the Chief Fire Officer’s Certificate of Recognition at the Chief Fire Officer’s Awards Ceremony.
As well as presenting awards for outstanding service to Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue staff, the awards ceremony also recognises members of the public who have gone above and beyond to assist the fire service in their work.
Cath has been nominated due to delivering training sessions for fire crews in horse handling, which is an essential skill when dealing with an equine emergency.
Cath said: “I am really proud to be nominated for this award. The work that the fire service do is essential in equine rescues and I’m honoured to be part of delivering the specialist training in animal handling which will help the teams with any equine rescues in the future.”
Cat Sanderson, Technician Team Leader, added: “We are proud to deliver specialised training, providing practical skills and understanding that our regional fire service can apply in equine emergencies.
“Being nominated for the Chief Fire Officer’s Certificate of Recognition is an amazing achievement for Cath who leads the training, as well as for the wider equine technical team who contribute to this commitment.”
The ceremony takes place on the evening of 16 October at The Albert Hall Conference Centre.
