We were contacted by Cleveland Police who requested us, very sadly, to recover a body from woodland. Two members went to our Base to prepare a vehicle whilst our call-out officer liaised with the rest of the Team to arrange sufficient numbers to deploy. However, a short time later we were stood-down by the Police as they had been able to make other arrangements, so we were no longer required.
Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the deceased.
Applications can be made to join the team in a support role (Operational Support) or as a hill going (Search and Rescue) member.
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.

CALL-OUT 18/2024
THURSDAY 16TH MAY 2024 (0813 HOURS)
We were called out by North Yorkshire Police this morning to a report of a potentially unwell and disoriented person on the North York Moors National Park near Snilesworth Moor. Although at that time of the day a good number of our volunteer Team members were already at or on their way to work etc, we still managed a decent turn-out to an RV-point at Square Corner, near Osmotherley. On arrival there, two Land Rover crews were quickly dispatched to search for the casualty whilst other members gathered at the RV, preparing for a possible lengthy search.
Fortunately, the casualty was soon located by the Land Rover crews and once medically assessed, the Police were updated and the casualty was subsequently left in the care of a Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust crew.
Many thanks to the landowners for access via their property.
Twenty Cleveland MRT members either attended or were en route when stood down. By the time both vehicles had returned to Base the call-out had lasted approximately 4-hours.
