Cheshire Search and Rescue is a team of volunteers, on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.  Ready to deploy at any time, whatever the weather.

The primary function of the team is to assist Cheshire Police with searches for vulnerable missing people. However, the team also has capability for flood response, evidence searching and assisting other emergency services as the need arises.

Covering all 904 square miles (2.34 billion square metres) of Cheshire, the varied terrain includes rural land, towns and cities, moorland, forest, and some very steep ground. This means members must be prepared to tackle a variety of locations.

Cheshire also boasts more miles of waterways than most UK counties, so in recent years they have had to advance their water-based search capability significantly. The members spend many hours training every week alongside providing a large portion of their own kit.
