Lake District Mountain Rescue Teams


In all weathers they turn out. The volunteers of the Lake District Mountain Rescue Teams have to be fit and able to stretcher injured walkers and climbers to safety. And all their work is funded by charitable donations.

Wasdale MRT has its base in Gosforth village and works very closely with the Eskdale Outward Bounds Schools rescue volunteers. It includes Scafell and Great Gable in its area of rescues.
