The Team was contacted at 04:30hrs on Tuesday 15th May following reports of a person missing from home in poor weather conditions.
The information available when our First Responder contacted Police was sketchy so further details were requested. Whilst waiting for this information, the Police called back as the missing person had been found and the Team was stood down at 05:06hrs.
As if by magic, the fifth installment has now been published.

Rich will be updating his blog regularly and we will keep putting the links here.
7th May was the annual National Mountain and Cave Rescue Awareness Day and teams across the country were out meeting members of the public so they could find out more about their local teams.
We joined Famau Trinity Scouts at their annual Duck Race at Loggerheads Country Park. We met a wide range of people who wanted to know more about what we do and we also raised £109.25 as an added bonus!
Thanks very much for coming to say hello and taking an interest in the Team.
