Saving lives in wild and remote places since 1971

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.

1: Callout – Wednesday 1st January 2020

The team were alerted by a walker who had become lost somewhere on Kinder. Because we had no idea where he was or where to start, the Kinder Plan was initiated, with all 4 teams starting to search their own parts of the plateau. Fortunately, the lost walker was able to connect with another walker who was able to guide him back down to Hayfield, thus saving us all hours of searching. A great result.

  • Lost walker on Kinder plateau
  • Time: 15:05
  • Members: 23 KMRT plus Edale, Glossop and Buxton MRT’s
  • Volunteer hours 1.25
  • Total for year: 28.75
