Just a few days after an ITV crew visited our Base this time it was the turn of BBC Look North (NE & Cumbria) to talk to us but this time via Zoom!
Our Public Relations Officer, Gary Clarke, spoke to Peter Harris from Look North about the impact of COVID-19 on the Team’s work and in particular the potential for increased call-outs when the current lockdown is lifted.
The start of the piece includes video footage from a rescue we undertook at Gormire Lake in June 2020 plus some still shots from other rescues last year. Later in the interview Peter Harris spoke to one of our colleagues from the North of Tyne MRT.
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 47/2024
TUESDAY 29TH OCTOBER 2024 (1511 HOURS)
We were requested by the North East Ambulance Service NHS Foundation Trust to go to the aid of an injured horse rider, following a fall on farmland between Guisborough and Skelton. One of our Team Doctors headed directly there whilst other members using two Land Rovers joined him upon their arrival.
After the casualty had been stabilised and given pain relief, she was ‘packaged’ within a vacuum mattress on a rescue stretcher, which was then secured inside one of the Land Rovers. After she had been driven to a farmyard, she was handed over into the care of the ambulance crew. We wish her all the best for a swift recovery.
Many thanks to people at the farm for helping to transport some of our personnel.
Seventeen Cleveland MRT members were involved for just under 2-hours before they were able to leave the farm and head home or to our Base.
Well done to all involved, Hope the Lady makes a speedy recovery.
Well done to all the team👏👏
Amazing as always.. thank you for all you do xxx
Well done
Always there when called upon!
