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.

33: Callout – 11 May 2025

A lady and her family were walking on a route along the top of Kinder Scout.  As they were walking past Pym Chair, she slipped and fractured her ankle.  She was in significant pain and was unable to walk. 

A fast response party was despatched to the location.  They administered strong pain relief and splinted her ankle.  Further team members arrived to stretcher her back to our vehicles at Edale Cross.  From there she was driven down to out base for onward transport to hospital.

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team is staffed by volunteers who give their time free of charge and is funded entirely by public donations.
