Volunteers saving lives
24/7/365
Donate
The Team is entirely funded by donations and all members are unpaid volunteers, willing to respond any day of the year in any weather.
The operational members of the Team commit to a rigorous program of training throughout the year, covering casualty care, off-road and ‘blue-light’ driving, radio communications, search management and Swiftwater rescue. We respond to on average 60+ callouts a year and are on call 365 days per year, 24 hours per day.
Get Involved

You can join our Operational Team, attending callouts and monthly training, or you get involved with our Friends group who are non-operational Team members who do fundraising, organising events and occasionally getting involved in Team training as ‘Casualties’.
