Who we are

UNRS is a voluntary, non-governmental, paramilitary regimental body. Our members train in rescue, first aid and public safety so that communities have trained help close by when an emergency or disaster strikes.

We work alongside government agencies and law enforcement. We do not replace them.

In Nigeria, UNRS operates as the 234 Battalion Nigeria Contingent, with state commands across the country.
