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.

6: Callout 24 January 2022

We were called at 10:40 to assist in a major multi-team search for the missing person from callout 5. Led by Glossop MRT, the search included Kinder MRT, Buxton MRT, Edale MRT, Oldham MRT, Woodhead MRT and SARDA search dogs. As the teams were carrying out detailed line searches around the Doctor’s Gate area, the lady was found safe and well by a local gamekeeper in Dowstone Clough. She was assessed by MR medics and transported to hospital as a precaution.
