Cleveland Search & Rescue team has launched a new online fundraising webshop.
We are asking all our supporters to shop online via our webshop and help raise money for us at no extra cost to yourself.
Over 100 retailers are accessible through the webshop, including Tesco, Marks & Spencer, John Lewis and Waterstones. Many retailers provide exclusive offers to the webshop, such as discounts or offering free delivery to the customer, providing more reasons for supporters to buy products through the webshop.
The webshop is straightforward to use and no technical knowledge is required. Shopping via this portal will raise funds with help from retailers such as Tesco who offer £5 for every new customer who makes a groceries transaction.
The webshop facility is such a simple but effective idea. We receive a commission on each purchase you make. Donating to our organisation couldn’t be easier!

A fallen hill walker, lost child or crashed mountain biker all require assistance and care, as well as evacuation to a place of safety. In the remote, hilly or mountainous areas of Cleveland and North Yorkshire that vital service is provide by Cleveland Search and Rescue Team who provide a professional and rapid response at any time of day or year- whatever the weather!
The mountainous and rural areas, which lie on our doorstep, provide enjoyment to many thousands of visitors annually but their use inevitably carries some element of risk. The 50 unpaid volunteers of our Team train weekly, using the very best equipment and practicing the most up to date skills, to maintain an impressive ability to respond to the demands placed upon us as we work alongside the Police, Ambulance, Royal Air Force and other Emergency Services and Mountain Rescue Teams.
As Team Leader I hope that you enjoy finding out more about our Team through our website. I am very proud of the contribution made by our members- both those on call 24 hours a day and who those who support our work- we would be delighted if you could support our work to, perhaps by entering one of our events or making a donation to cover the costs of our work.

The contribution Bryan has made to the Team in particular, and to Mountain Rescue in general has been a life longs’ work. In the early years of Cleveland Team Bryan did much to establish the Team, and was instrumental in inculcating the confidence of various Police and Ambulance Authorities. Today Cleveland Team is held in high regard by all and has given a thoroughly professional service to the community over the last 41 years. This is in no small way due to Bryan’s unstinting efforts.
In Cleveland Team we will never forget the contribution Bryan has made and we wish him well in his retirement.
