SUNDAY 12th Oct (1005hrs)
The team were contacted by both Yorkshire Police and Yorkshire Ambulance Service about an injured mountain biker in Boltby area. With a number of the team present at Lordstones attending the Viking Chase, a quick reassessment of the manning levels required to support the event allowed the Mercedes Benz V4 vehicle and 3 people to leave for the call out. Meanwhile, the other Land Rover was manned and left the base along with other members in their own vehicles for the RV at top of Sneck Yate Bank. From the RV, a few team members started to walk to the casualty site. V4 drove towards the site which had picked up the road crew from Yorkshire Air Ambulance . As they approached the site, the injured person was able to walk towards them with assistance from the road ambulance crew. The team members in V4 got out to allow the casualty and the ambulance crew to be transported to the road ambulance on the bank.
We wish the casualty a full and rapid recovery and hope they are back out in the near future
15 team members were involved for approximately 2 hours

Mountain Rescue teams receive no central/government funding. We rely on donations from the public/ organisations and from events the team attend or organise. At Cleveland MRT, an important group of members are the support team. They attend various shows and events throughout the year promoting the team and raising funds .They are just as important to the team as the operational members.
