Brecon Mountain Rescue Team Fundraising

Mountain Rescue services are free to those in need because the teams are staffed by volunteers, who expect nothing more than a thank you. However, equipment, vehicles and maintaining a headquarters all cost money so those very same volunteers have to raise sufficient funds to maintain the service.

The 200 Club also contributes to team fund-raising by way of a monthly contribution to a prize fund with quarterly draws. See http://200club.breconmrt.co.uk/ for full information.

Fundraising is an art form, and our team's activities are co-ordinated by Kevin Harding who has the difficult job of matching our team's requirements with income! It cost approximately £20,000 per annum to run the team. The fundraising schemes are becoming more novel, as this picture shows where we are setting practical outdoor challenges for a GPs' training course.

Brecon MRT is a Registered Charity, Number 517732
