SATURDAY 8TH JUNE 2024 (1310 HOURS)
Calls from North Yorkshire Police and the Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) alerted us to a fallen climber in Scugdale near Swainby. The climber had sustained potentially serious injuries and after treatment by the YAS crew and Team members, we secured him within a vacuum mattress and carried him on a rescue stretcher to the top of the crag. We then transferred him to a Yorkshire Air Ambulance helicopter and gave him our best wishes for his recovery process before he was then flown to hospital.
Eighteen Cleveland MRT members were involved for approximately 2.5-hours before some rejoined the Ardmoors event at Lordstones Country Park (where they had been providing event cover), whilst others returned to Base and/or their homes. They had little time to rest before the next call
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 👏👏
