Incidents
The CRO Duty Controllers (five are on weekly call throughout the year) frequently respond to calls from the Police for advice regarding overdue cavers and walkers that do not result in any team call out. Our SARDA dog handlers are sometimes called to assist other Mountain Rescue Teams in searches out of our area. The CRO only records incidents where people or equipment are deployed; while the CRO is also asked for advice, placed on 'stand-by' or undertakes initial enquiries to confirm whether people reported 'missing' are safe and well. These un-recorded incidents potentially double the published data.
