Members of Cumbrae Coastguard Rescue Team showed their skills in a training session at Millport Helipad over the weekend.
The team focusses on initial casualty care in various incident scenarios, radio procedures, helicopter operations and casualty transport.
The Coastguard responds to incidents on or around the island, on the water, to make sure people are staying safe.
For emergencies at sea or along the coastline, dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
