Please Support Us

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team (KMRT) has been in existence since 1971, and is one of seven mountain rescue teams that operate within the Peak District National Park, as part of the Peak District Mountain Rescue Organisation (PDMRO).

Our 50 members operate on an purely voluntary basis and are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to assist members of the public on the hill or in urban search and rescue situations.

We are almost exclusively funded by public donations, and all proceeds from fund raising go towards equipment and resources used on our call outs.

2023 Cracken Edge fell race report & results

A squelchy August day didn’t put off the crowds for the Cracken Edge Fell Race, with an impressive 167 runners gathering for the event in Hayfield on Wednesday evening. The forecasted storms weren’t brave enough to venture further north than Birmingham, so participants were safe to take to the hills at 7.30pm. 

A mere 43 minutes and 10 seconds later, William Longden from Buxton AC romped to victory. Martha Tibbot from Saddleworth AC was the first woman to power through the finishing funnel in 49 minutes and 55 seconds. The full prize list is below. 

It was standing room only at the George Hotel for the prize giving, where Pennine Fell Runners were awarded the women’s team prize, Buxton AC took the men’s and the Mountain Rescue trophy was once again presented to the mighty Glossop Team. 

Thanks to Pete Bland for the race numbers, the landowners for being so supportive of the event and to all those who volunteered their time to make the race possible.

See you next year!
