Mountain rescue team offers top tips to stay safe

Top tips on how to stay safe when out on the hills are being offered in a series of videos. 

Created by Buxton Mountain Rescue Team, the series of short informative videos each focus on particular areas. 

Two videos have been released so far on the team’s Facebook page and been viewed hundreds of times. 

On call 365 days a year, the volunteers of the High Peak’s four Mountain Rescue Teams - Glossop, Buxton, Edale and Kinder - provide a vital service. 

They are available 24/7 to help those who get into trouble while walking, riding, or climbing on the hills around the area.  

They rely completely on donations from the public to purchase equipment. You can find out more about the individual teams or how you can support their fundraising efforts through their websites or social media.
