For the 2024/25 season, our members have voted to support the Cambridgeshire Search and Rescue organisation.
Cambridgeshire Search and Rescue (CamSAR) is a member of Lowland Rescue and provides Cambridgeshire Constabulary with an emergency specially-trained team in the search for vulnerable high-risk missing persons, such as a child, an elderly person living with dementia or even someone who is considering taking their own life. In each case, an emergency response is vital.
CamSAR is able to deploy various specialist resources including water-based search teams, bike search teams, drone teams and dog teams. The team is able to operate a fully self-sufficient search with its own radio communications, search equipment, IT and planning and mapping tools as well as full welfare support.
On the ground, Search Technicians and Team Leaders apply thoroughly drilled skills, knowledge and experience to search assigned sectors of all terrains efficiently and take care of the missing person when they are found.
