Story

We are a group of 18 year olds on a leadership course and have just spent the day training with the Coniston Mountain Rescue Team and have found their experience really valuable, even though the day was cut short due to an actual callout. As a consequence of witnessing their amazing volunteer work we have decided to help them in their funding plans for rebuilding a new base as  they are currently running low on space and also to help them in their training and day to day running of the base.

The team’s story is as follows:  

The team is on-call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, we are all volunteers and funded only by public donations. The Coniston team was founded in 1947 and was the first of its kind in Britain.Team call outs have changed greatly over the years. Originally the most common call out was for fallen climbers or people lost in the hills. These days the role of the Mountain rescuer has expanded, although the service remains voluntary with team members giving up their time should the need arise. 

They are an amazing group of volunteers and any help would be greatly appreciated!
