Brilliant video, so many people don't realise the range of work they do. Amazing teams of volunteers.
Bumped into these guys a few times while they were exercising on the moor - a very professional and dedicated operation!
A lot of what they do is unglamorous, like searching for dementing elderly people who have wandered off.
And some of it is grim, like recovering bodies from the moor or the river.
But all of it is vital - as they say, there is no-one else who can find the lost and rescue the injured.
They are all volunteers. So please don't take them for granted, and give them your support!
