Any Mountain Rescue Team members here?

[LaneDiesel]

Hi folks,

Registered my interest in applying to volunteer for the local Mountain Rescue Team and got the application forms last week.

All done and sent off, just waiting to see if I have got through the papersift.

Are there any MRT members on here? Would like to hear about the application processes, experiences and what affect it has on your work and home lives.

Any tips would be appreciated, and for those who support or operate the teams, keep up the great work

That would be great

Some fantastic work on here

Some great replies on here

I am still awaiting a result on how my application went, but I am attending a Kit & Vehicle Maintenance evening this week to have a look around and meet some team members, looking foraward to it

I didn't pass the selection at the application stage due to my lack of climbing experience. I still have such a massive respect for MR teams, and it was good to at least have a look around

How's it going OP?

I still keep an eye on this thread as there is some great work going on! I didn't pass the application phase due to my lack of experiece, however since applying I'm in a new role at work with less time to spare. I will look forward to the updates on here
