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.

52: Callout – 15 August 2025

East Midlands Ambulance Service asked us to assist in the evacuation of an injured casualty from New Mill Torrs. They were on scene and were treating a lady with an ankle injury who was unable to walk. Fortunately, we were able to drive our team Landrover into The Torrs via the Rock Mill entrance and down to the casualty at ‘Archie’ the archimedes screw hydro power plant. Our casualty was able to hobble, with assistance to our vehicle. We drove her to the Co-op car park, where she transferred to the EMAS ambulance for transfer to Stepping Hill A&E.

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