In this video, our North Ridge brand ambassador, Gethin Jones, joins Mountain Rescue at Edale to learn about the work these remarkable volunteers do and how important it is to stay safe whilst out on the hill! Gethin caught up with Rachael Gatehouse, one of the Edale Mountain Rescue team members, for some top tips on staying safe while exploring the outdoors. He also took place in a rescue re-enactment to find out what it would be like to be ‘saved’ by Mountain Rescue on the hill. Watch this video to find out exactly how it went!
Mountain Rescue are a team of volunteers who are on call 24/7, 365 days a year to help the public when they are in danger. From recovering climbers from crags, to reuniting lost walkers with their friends, and ensuring casualties are safely delivered to vital hospital care, Mountain Rescue are on hand for emergencies in mountainous environments.
However, the team is sometimes also used to apply to search and rescue in other wilderness environments. Mountain Rescue England & Wales were called out to 3,367 incidents in 2022, and Edale is one of their busiest teams in the country with over 160 of those incidents belonging to this area alone. They are a charitable organisation that rely solely on donations from the public and businesses.
