## 2. **About the team** 

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team (KMRT) (https://kmrt.org.uk) was established in 1971. Our base is in Hayfield in the High Peak and we operate mostly within the UK  Peak  District  National  Park  and  in  the  rural  and  urban  areas  of  north Derbyshire, Macclesfield and Stockport. We also support wider local and national emergency response as required. 

## **What we do** 

The team’s primary objective is to support the community 24/7/365 providing specialist search and rescue at the request of the emergency services, including: 

1.  Search  of  all  terrains,  urban  and  rural,  for  injured,  lost  or  missing vulnerable people. 

2. Provision of first on scene casualty care, to protect life and to prevent any deterioration for the casualty, including the packaging and extraction of the casualty through to handover to ambulance services. 

3.Assisting water rescues (rivers, lakes, reservoirs and floods), response to bad weather (e.g. traffic and ambulance assistance in snow) and multiagency major incident emergency responses (e.g. the partial collapse of the Whaley Bridge reservoir dam wall in 2019 and moorland fires). 

## **Emergency services we work with** 

KMRT  is  one  of  seven  teams  within  the  Peak  District  Mountain  Rescue Organisation  (PDMRO)  under  the  umbrella  of  Mountain  Rescue  England  and Wales (MREW). 

We primarily work with the Derbyshire Constabulary but are also called to assist Greater Manchester Police, East Midlands Ambulance Service and North West Ambulance Service.  This means we work frequently with several Air Ambulance Organisations including UK Search and Rescue as part HM Coastguard as well as Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance. 








## **Fundraising** 

KMRT receives no funding from central or local government and so we rely entirely on fundraising activities, donations and grants.  It costs approximately £40,000 a year to run the team on top of which we have to fund significant projects, for example the purchase of our base, new and replacement vehicles and equipment. 

We are very grateful for the support and grants from a number of organisations. Over the last 5 years these include: Platinum International / Alliance Motor Group for water rescue equipment), Gryphon Alpha FPSO platform Welfare Fund, Tesco Community  Fund  (contribution  to  conversion  of  new  Landrover  Defender), Thornsett Brewery (sale of Kinder 50 beer and donations), NutriAdvanced, Kaiser Trust (new team rucksacks), via Mountain Rescue England & Wales HRH Prince of Wales Annual Charity Polo Match, B&M Community Fund (major  contribution  to  a  new  Landrover  Defender  ambulance),  the  National Lottery  (digital  radios),  Tesco  Bags  of  Help  (trailer  for  our  water  rescue equipment), the People’s Postcode Lottery (hill party kit), Co-op Community Fund (additional road vehicle), Arm Corporation (new stretcher), Arnold Clark (replacement  rucksacks  for  team  kit),  Thomson  Reuters  Community  Fund (contribution to new Landrover Defender ambulance), Waitrose (running 




expenses), High Peak Borough Council Councillors Initiative (new laptop, water team helmets and hill party rucksacks) and Covid small business discretionary grant  (running  expenses).  We  also  received  £3,000  in  donations  from  the Hayfield Sheepdog show, which will sadly be no longer running. We would like to thank the organisers for all their support in the past. 

We would also like to thank New Mills and Chapel-en-le Frith Town Councils for donations received in return for team members support at local events, and to the organisers of Hayfield Sheepdog Trials, for many years’ support. 

We are particularly indebted to supporters who leave us legacies in their wills. In 2022 this included Geoffrey Bramall and Jean Buckley whose extremely generous legacies have enabled us to purchase major items of essential equipment. 

We are also very grateful to each and every one of our numerous supporters who have undertaken incredible missions and projects to raise money for the team. There  are  too  many  to  mention  everyone,  but  these  include  June  Thomas (through sales of her fish recipe book), Anne & Doug Hicks (Golden Wedding donation), Kinder Blue and Karen and the Cellar Katz, High Peak Singers, I’d rather be Outdoors, Rita Firth, the family of Mark Boulton, Mrs Parkes in memory of her brother Steve Chatterton ( a former team member ), Jill Watson’s cakes, marmalades and jams, Millers Refillers, and Dave & Ursula (Peep O’Day parking). Special thanks are due to great supporters of the team, Nicky and Gareth Hall, who donated funds to the team that were raised from the event in Hayfield celebrating their daughter Amy’s 18[th] Birthday. 

To help our community and raise additional funds through donations we assist at various community events such as: 

- ●Marshalling and/or providing first aid at fell runs (e.g. Kinder Downfall, Kinder Trog, Mount Famine Race) and long-distance walks (e.g. Baslow Boot Bash); 

- ●Arranging our own annual fell race (Cracken Edge); 

- ●Helping with the organisation and running of Hayfield Open Gardens; 

- ●Helping at and attending various local events such as New Mills lantern parade,  New Mills  fireworks,  Hayfield May  Queen, Hayfield  Apple Day, Derbyshire Art Trail; 

- ●Helping with the organisation, spreading awareness and running of the annual St Ann’s Hospice Christmas tree collection, which in January 2023 raised over  £63,000 for St Ann’s Hospice and 14 other local  charities including Kinder Mountain Rescue Team; 

- ●Providing talks and/or first  aid training to various schools  and groups, including Mellor WI, Hayfield WI and numerous others. 

We are also very grateful to families and friends who have made donations to KMRT at funerals or in memory of a loved person. 




## **The community we are here to help** 

Our base is in Hayfield, a large village at the foot of Kinder Scout in the Peak District, but our operational area covers not just Kinder Scout but a wider area including urban locations.  The map below shows our operational area and the location of our callouts over the last 10 years: 


A lot of people live close to and visit our patch. The Peak District is the most visited  and  most  accessible  National  Park  in  the  UK,  close  to  the  cities  of Manchester, Sheffield, Nottingham and Derby. An estimated 20 million people live within an hour’s drive of the Peak District and more than 13 million people visit the Peak District National Park each year (https://www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/learning-about/news/70-years-of-the-peakdistrict-national-park/peak-district-facts). 

People flock to Hayfield every weekend, whatever the weather, to enjoy Kinder Scout and its foothills. Our ‘patch’ covers the Kinder plateau which includes a popular part of the Pennine Way, numerous Instagram advertised attractions such as Kinder Downfall (as a waterfall and for its renowned icicles for winter climbing),  air  crash  sites  (at  least  6  sites  on  our  patch  with  memorials  or wreckage), it is the location for Duke of Edinburgh excursions, numerous fell runs and long-distance walks, and is very popular with mountain bikers. 

## **Our interaction with the community** 

We work with and support our local community wherever we can. 




- ●The Team regularly attends schools, and local groups, such as Scouts, WI, U3A, and sports clubs, to promote the work of the team and discuss safety in the mountain and to give basic first aid training, particularly in CPR and defibrillators. 

- ●We  support  and  assist  at  various  community  events  (see  fundraising above). 

- ●We provide help in bad weather  including supporting the police when people are stuck in the snow, transporting people when a road ambulance cannot reach them, and we took some people to their Covid injections when the weather was bad. 

We are also grateful for the support of a number of organisations who provide KMRT or team members with highly discounted or free goods and services or give us priority. There are too many to mention all of them but these include Michelmores  Solicitors,  Marstons  Brewery,  Pete  Bland  for  fell  race  numbers, Naughty Dog printers in Disley, Hallam’s garage in Hayfield, Cotswold, Alpkit, Outdoor Active, and numerous businesses and pubs who have our collection boxes. 

## **Sustainability** 

As an outdoor organisation we are acutely aware of the challenges presented by climate  change.  In  line  with  the  Charity  Commission’s  guidance,  we  are integrating sustainability into the operation and management of the team. We have a published sustainability policy which focuses on four key areas: 

- ●Having sustainability at the heart of everything we do 

- ●Aiming for net zero carbon emissions as an organisation 

- ●Sustainable purchasing 

- ●Reduce, reuse, repair, recycle 

We are at the beginning of this journey and there are many challenges ahead. Some key achievements so far have been: 

- ●The generation of a sustainability group and a sustainability policy 

- ●Including sustainability into all officers’ job descriptions to ensure that it is considered at all decision points 

- ●Increased re-use and recycling of equipment. Avoidance of acquiring new kit unless there is a need – even if the kit is free 

- ●Change of electricity supplier to a 100% renewable supply 




## 3. **Message from the Chair** 

2022  saw  us  successfully  train  another  6  recruits  who  became  full  team members in September 2023 when 4 more probationers joined us. Any new members  go  through  a  12  month  programme  and  are  supported  by  many members of the team who give up their time to teach, develop and encourage them through to full membership. 

As well as responding to callouts, the team rely on additional hours from a large number of operational members.  This includes vehicle checks and maintenance, re-supplying casualty care stocks, the upkeep of base, planning and executing training,  co-ordinating  with  other  teams,  bodies  and  organisations  to  share knowledge and best practice as well as create and run events, co-ordinating and attending fundraising events, finding and making grant applications, delivering talks to and hosting local groups to share what we do. There is a real level of commitment within the team over and above helping our casualties on callouts. 

We  are delighted  that  we  have  managed  to  fundraise  enough  for  the replacement Landrover although efforts continue to fund the customisation.  The vehicle is being converted and should be with us in the coming months. 

We continue to use part of the  New Mills Fire Station which is rented from Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service and are grateful for this space to store all our water kit and a vehicle.  We spent much of 2022 trying to expand our Base in Hayfield in one way or another but all avenues were closed so 2023 will be about utilising and improving the space we have. 

Without  the  generosity  of  the  public  every  year,  and  those  people  and organisations who value our work, we would struggle to finance the ongoing needs  of  the  team,  we  would  be  unable  to  keep  up  with  developments  in techniques, equipment, and be unable to meet the expectations of the people we rescue. On behalf of the Team Members and the people we have to rescue in the future I would like to say thank you to everyone who has given us a donation of any size. 

We  would  also  like  to  thank  our  neighbouring  Mountain  Rescue  teams  who respond  when  we  need  extra  personnel to  assist  with search  and recovery, particularly including the Teams at Glossop, Buxton and Edale. For our members to respond to callouts we rely on the continued support of their employers. Thank you once again for granting this time and adapting your business to the inconvenience  this  can  create.  Finally,  thanks  to  the  families  of  the  Team Members who are probably the greatest to suffer inconvenience, not only the time for training, meetings and call outs, managing to deal with wet and muddy kit, as well as the call out alerts going off in the night, during dinner and on birthdays. 

Alison Aldridge, Chair 




## 4. **Operational update** 

2022 has been a quieter year for the team, with 34 being just below the average number of callouts we would expect for a normal year. However the number doesn’t necessarily  reflect  the challenging nature of some of  these callouts. There have been some exceptionally difficult and emotionally draining jobs for the team. 

## **Callouts April 2022 – March 2023** 



The team’s principal response area covers the western and southern areas of Kinder Scout, which is the highest point in the Peak District National Park.  This is one of the busiest National Parks in the country, mainly due to its proximity and ease of access from both the Manchester and Sheffield areas. 




Kinder Scout is a large area which is notoriously difficult to navigate in poor conditions.  Visitors are regularly caught out by the severity of the conditions and the featureless nature of higher areas. 

Almost half of our callouts are for lost / benighted and injured walkers, which reflects the terrain the team covers. 

In 2022 the Team was made up of 58 members: 

|Role|Number|
|---|---|
|Hill members|46|
|Probationary members|6|
|Operation support &<br>drivers|6|



Many team members take on additional roles which require extra hours of training: 

|Role|Number|
|---|---|
|Of-Road Trained Drivers|24|
|Of-Road Driving Instructor|2|
|Water Team||
|-<br>Swift Water Rescue Technicians (DEFRA<br>MOD3)|11|
|MREW Casualty Care Qualifcation|18|
|Rope Rescue Instructors|2|



The  team  also  deal  with  a  range  of  requests  for  our  assistance  including attending flooding incidents and searches for missing vulnerable people. 

Many team members committed significantly more time than this for no financial reward,  often  in  addition  to  their  full  time  paid  employment  and  family commitments. 

Our training programme is key to being a successful mountain rescue team, so we are also ready to respond to a request for help in a search and rescue operation. 

All team members are expected to attend a high percentage of our standard training which covers casualty care and mountain rescue skills every month, supplemented by monthly weekend exercises where we put this into practice and carry out exercises covering subjects such as rope rescue incidents, missing 




walkers on Kinder Scout, high risk missing vulnerable person searches and the like. 



In addition to this standard training we must also carry out specialist training depending on our own individual specialist areas such as working with helicopters, off road driving skills, water rescue skills, search management planning skills, IT skills, leadership skills and much more. 



The Team Leader is supported by two deputy team leaders and six assistant team leaders, all of whom are skilled and trained to a level where they can take a request for help and run a callout from start to finish.  The team is fortunate to have such a group of dedicated leaders. 

The other aspect of our operational work are the meetings and liaisons groups with colleagues in other mountain rescue teams in both the Peak District and the Greater Manchester areas.  The work that quietly goes on in the background with the  statutory  services  ensures  that  we  have  exceptionally  good  working relationships with a vast array of partners including Derbyshire Police, Greater Manchester  Police,  Cheshire  Police,  East  Midlands  Ambulance  service,  North West Ambulance Service, Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service, Greater Manchester Fire  &  Rescue  Service,  HM  Coastguard  Rescue  and  various  Air  Ambulance charities. 




My thanks go to every team member, their families, their employers and every single  person  who  supports  us  in  the  work  that  we  do.   Without  you  all supporting us, we could not respond to requests for help from those who need our help within our local communities or all those who visit our area.  Thank you. 

Neil Woodhead, Team Leader 

## 5. **Financial summary** 

The  team  has  had  another  successful  financial  year,  during  which  we  have benefitted from a number of unexpected large legacies and donations, and also started investments to maintain and improve our Search and Rescue capabilities, specifically a deposit on a replacement Landrover Defender, an upgrade to our IT equipment at base, and purchases of new bespoke clip together personal and team rucksacks that form our new carrying system. 

Income  for  the  year  was  £138,198  (£52,394  more  than  last  year)  and expenditure was £42,408. So we have received a net cash income of more than £95,000  over  the  year.   The  balance  of  funds  at  the  end  of  the  year  was £360,198. Taking into account the £67,611 in our reserved vehicle fund, this means we retain £125,337 over our reserve of £113,250, which ensures we retain  sufficient  funds  to  cover  one year’s  running  costs  and any  uninsured events that would severely impact our operational capability. 

We have policies in place for Financial Controls and Financial Governance. These are  reviewed  annually  to  ensure  the  trustees  meet  their  obligations  for responsible management of KMRT’s financial resources and that KMRT finances are  managed  in  accordance  with  UK  regulations  governing  charities  and companies.  We  have  buildings  and  contents  insurance  in  place  which  also includes off-site cover for the more costly equipment under an all-risks schedule. This year, to mitigate against the effects of increased inflation, we have moved some of our funds into new deposit accounts  which offer improved rates of interest. 

That we have had a good financial year is once again primarily due to the continuing  efforts  of  the  fundraising  team,  Pete  and  Amanda,  who  have successfully chased a number of lucrative sources of grants and funding, and to all members the team and our wonderful supporters who have rallied round and supported us through a number of imaginative fundraising activities.  We have listed major supporters of the team earlier, so will not repeat them here, but again, thanks to each and everyone of you however large or small your donation. 

Major  items  of expenditure  in  the  past  year  include  £20,003  on  equipment (£10,908  on  the  new  rucksacks  from  Aiguille);  £6,137  on  rescue  vehicles (including a £1,000 deposit for the replacement Landrover Defender), £5,671 on communications (primarily on a major upgrade to IT equipment at base); £2,586 




on premises; £2,495 on insurance, £2,235 on fundraising, £1,668 on training (primarily for water rescue courses);  and £475 on medical supplies. 

## **6.5 year plan and fundraising aspirations** 

The Trustees and Leadership have introduced financial budgets for the various aspects  of  the  Team  to  allow  us  to  foresee  and  better  plan  for  financial challenges the Team routinely faces. 

Over  the  last  few  years,  they  have  also  implemented  robust  organisational processes to continue our mission to have the highest levels of professionalism across  all  our  operations  and  activities  and  in  our  financial  controls  and governance. This includes: 

- ●having a robust business case and plan for all projects, to ensure we fully assess what we are allocating funds to, the reasons for the need, why the project  is an appropriate  response  to  the need  and  research  into  the quality and price of alternative solutions. 

- ●Taking into account our risk management and health & safety policies in all decisions we make 

Based on this forward look, we maintain a rolling five-year expenditure plan, which includes all routine running costs, training costs, and maintenance and renewal of team equipment  and personal  issue kit. Increased  inflation is an important factor which will increase costs on all aspects of our operations, we have included inflation forecasts into our forward look and  have taken action to mitigate the impact by moving some funds into restricted access higher interest earning accounts. 

Major items of expenditure for the next 5 years include the replacement of the one of the team’s rescue vehicles and replacement defibrillators. These costs are in addition to the projected £40,000 “normal” annual cost of running the team.
