North Yorkshire Police contacted the team to provide assistance with the search for 2 walkers who were lost in the area around Blakey Ridge.The location provided by What3Words was confirmed to be on the old railway line between Bloworth Crossing and Lion Inn at Blakey. A limited deployment was undertaken with one Land Rover manned with  4 personnel and two members ,who stay in the Danby area, making their way to Lion Inn.

From the Inn, the two members  walked along the disused railway line towards the two walkers who were in continuous communication with the call out officer.A short time later the walkers met the two members and walked to the Lion Inn. At the Inn, the two people contacted a friend to collect them.

A total of 7 members were directly involved with another 11 members on stand by for approximately 1.75 hours
