SUNDAY 12TH MAY 2024
We were contacted before lunchtime by the North East Ambulance Service requesting our potential assistance in the Moorsholm area. Whilst a number of Team members deployed to our Base to prepare the Team vehicles for readiness, everyone else was put on standby.
Following discussions with NEAS and Cleveland Police it was decided that our attendance was no longer required so we left the matter in the capable hands of our emergency service colleagues.
Eight Team members were deployed to our Base with a total of twenty-two being involved, including those on standby. The deployment and primary standby phase lasted just under three-quarters of an hour, although it was 2.5-hours in total before our Call-out Officer was able to conclude the matter pending further discussions with NEAS.
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 33/2024
FRIDAY 26TH JULY 2024 (1532 HOURS)
We received a request from the North East Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust to assist them with a horse rider who had suffered potentially serious injuries after a fall on land east of Guisborough. A Team Land Rover with five people on board was deployed from our Base to an RV-point in the area, whilst other Team members went in their own vehicles. Upon arrival we deployed one ‘hasty party’ on foot to meet up with the NEAS crew dealing with the casualty, with the remainder of our personnel following a short while later.
Once the NEAS personnel had finished assessing and stabilising the casualty, we lifted her onto a rescue stretcher and secured her within a vacuum mattress. After attaching a wheel to the stretcher we wheeled / carried her for approximately 650-metres to the RV-point, from where she was transferred to the waiting ambulance. We would like to send her our best wishes.
Eighteen Cleveland MRT members were involved for just over 1.5-hours when stood-down.
Hoping the casualty recovers quickly, well done team 💚
Well done team 👏👏
