Cave Rescue Organisation
Other
We want to buy two trailers with off-road capability to carry specialist cave and swift water rescue equipment.
About this cause
The Cave Rescue Organisation helps those who visit, live and work in our operational area in the western Yorkshire Dales and parts of Cumbria and the Lancashire Pennines. All volunteers, we provide a cave and mountain rescue service available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to go to the aid of people (and animals) in difficulty whether on hills or cliffs or in caves or fast flowing rivers. Our objectives are to maintain and improve the life saving service we provide. We train regularly and in 2017 attended 99 incidents.
How this cause brings people in the community together
We respond to incidents involving anyone living or working or in our operational area as well as to visitors who travel to enjoy the remarkable Dales scenery.
