MAYO MOUNTAIN RESCUE TEAM

Mayo Mountain Rescue Team is a volunteer-run charity that provides 24-hour emergency cover on the hills and mountains of County Mayo. Operating under the 999/112 system, the team is on call around the clock to respond to incidents, coordinate rescues and ensure the safety of walkers, climbers and outdoor enthusiasts across the region.

In addition to rapid response, the organisation offers practical guidance for anyone planning to explore Mayo's upland terrain. Their "Before you climb" resources include tips, safety advice and equipment recommendations, while clear call-out guidelines help the public understand how and when to request assistance. Fundraising activities support the team's training, equipment and operational costs, reinforcing their commitment to a well-equipped, highly skilled rescue service.

As a registered charity (CRO 624408, Charity No 20204441), Mayo Mountain Rescue Team relies on community support and the dedication of its volunteers to keep the county's mountains safe for all.
