The Londonderry Volunteer Rescue Squad (LVRS) is an independent first response ambulance service and rescue squad. Licensed as an Advanced Life Support service, LVRS offers basic and advanced life support, as well as rescue services such as vehicle extrication, back-country rescue (i.e., hikers and snowmobilers), high- and low-angle rescues, and water rescue in all or part of nine towns in a 255-square mile coverage area.

Residents and visitors to the towns of Londonderry, South Londonderry, Landgrove, Weston, Peru, Winhall, Windham, Stratton and Jamaica are transported to Springfield Hospital, Rutland Regional Medical Center, Southern Vermont Medical Center (Bennington), Grace Cottage Hospital (Townsend), Brattleboro Memorial Hospital, and under some circumstances to Mountain Valley Medical Center in Londonderry and Northshire Medical Center in Manchester.

LVRS’ vehicle purchases and maintenance, volunteer training and other operating expenses are supported by generous community donations, occasional grant support and an annual fundraising raffle. Incorporated in 1963, LVRS continues to be one of the last remaining all-volunteer ambulance services and rescue departments in the state. Our patients are assisted and transported free of charge to the area hospital of their choosing.
