So Elvis & Priscilla are leaving the building.

Wendy and I wish to thank everyone for their unwavering support over the last 20 years
What a journey it’s been. Desperately hard work but ultimately very rewarding.
We have had a truly wonderful team around us for many years, but it’s now time to hand over the baton.
I know we have left the Swan in a very strong position to and wish Uros all the
best moving forward.
We hope you will continue to give him your support. The team remains the same, the kitchen remains the same, you just won’t have me here to insult you all.
Robert

Happy Christmas to you all.

75: Callout – 22 November 2025

Two experienced walkers were visiting Hayfield for the weekend and went for a walk on Kinder. Even their dogs were well equipped. Unfortunately, the weather was terrible on the top and they became disoriented and very frightened. We were able to determine their position with Sarcall PhoneFind as around Pym Chair.

We deployed from Edale Cross and quickly located the ladies, who were uninjured but very cold. We provided our Blizzard jackets, extra dry gloves and some hot drink. We walked them off to our vehicles at Edale Cross and then drove back to base for tea and biscuits. They were extremely grateful to us – the dogs seemed unaffected by the drama.

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team is staffed by volunteers who give their time free of charge and is funded entirely by public donations.
