We are reliant on the generosity of local people and groups to cover the £42,000 it costs to run the Team every year.
In addition to the Search and Rescue Team Members we have an Operational Support Team with over 20 members who help with fundraising activities, acting as injured or missing people, maintaining the vehicles and equipment and a multitude of other jobs.

Applications for either role can be made at any time. Intakes for Operational Support members occur at various times of the year. There is one annual intake for Search and Rescue normally each September.

At the start of each month we publish one photo from our 2020 Team calendar - July's photo was taken at Marske-by-the-Sea by photographer Stuart Knox. Here's hoping for the return of some 'blue sky' weather like that very soon!
July's calendar page was kindly sponsored by Boltby Trekking Centre - a horse trekking & trail riding centre in the North York Moors. Many, many thanks to them for helping us to cover the printing & distribution costs. They've even agreed to sponsor our 2021 calendar - so double thanks are in order!
