Supporting our community in times of need
The Community Offroad Transport Action Group was founded in 2004 and is a member of the nationwide UK 4x4 Response network, established to support emergency services and communities in times of need. COTAG 4x4 Response serves the Grampian region with a dedicated team of circa 30 volunteers, each of whom has undertaken training for the safe use of 4x4 vehicles and associated equipment, on and off the public highway.
COTAG prides itself in maintaining the highest standards of organisational management, personnel and equipment and this is detailed in multiple Memoranda of Understanding with Police Scotland, NHS Grampian and local authorities across the region. Additionally, COTAG assets are included in the Community Asset Register.
