KINDER MOUNTAIN RESCUE TEAM

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.

We were called by Derbyshire Police to assist in finding two walkers lost and in difficulty in the peat bogs on Kinder Scout. Hill parties were despatched to their location, where they were found cold but uninjured. We were able to safely escort them off the hill to our waiting Landrovers at Edale Cross – driven down to our base in Hayfield and then returned to their car in Edale.
