Charity Profile
Teesdale and Weardale Search and Mountain Rescue Team operates 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. We provide a mountain, search and rescue service for the whole of County Durham, from the high fells in the west to the coastal communities of the North Sea. The Team responds to requests by the Police to a range of incident types, from injured or lost people in the hills to vulnerable missing people in urban settings. The Team's skills and resources continue to grow to keep pace with our developing role. The rescue Team consists of about 50 volunteers, all on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. All our volunteers have full time jobs and meet almost all their own expenses. The Team will typically respond to between 40 and 50 requests for help every year. The North Pennine County Durham hills provide a diverse backdrop to our Mountain Rescue operations and training. The River Tees and the River Wear carve out valleys, rich in geology, ravines, gorges and waterfalls.
