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.

17: Callout – Mon 26 April 2021

Along with Buxton Mountain Rescue Team, we were called to support Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service in dealing with a moorland fire in the Woolpacks area of Kinder Scout. This was a limited call. We provided communications support and used our Landrovers to transport fire crew to Edale Cross to access the moor. The fire was put out by the fire service and a range of volunteers from the community.
