Cave and Mountain Rescue in parts of Cumbria, Lancashire and the Yorkshire Dales
Diving
The CRO maintains two sets of diving equipment for immediate deployment and use by members of the Cave Diving Group. Such incidents may include an overdue cave diver, a diver injured beyond a sump or potentially cavers trapped by floodwater.
The Cave Diving Group maintains a list of its local members who are available for callout. CRO has a Diving Officer who is res
ponsible for the maintenance and serviceability of the equipment and who is also a member of the CDG.
Our neighbouring team the Upper Wharfedale Fell Rescue Association has a similar amount of compatible equipment that will be called upon when required.
CRO would like to thank Capenwray Diving and Leisure for providing us with an out of hours bottle filling service when needed.
