At 2:16pm on Thursday, 19 February, we received reports of an animal in need of rescue near Frogmill in Hurley.
A Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service crew from Maidenhead Fire Station was sent to the scene alongside the Water Rescue Unit from Caversham Road Fire Station, a crew from Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service and a team from Berkshire Lowland Search and Rescue (BLSAR).
On arrival, crews discovered a deer stranded on an island in the Thames. Firefighters used a boat to access the island and safely rescue the deer.
