Mountain Rescue Ireland

Description:

Mountain Rescue Ireland (MRI) is the representative body of the twelve voluntary mountain rescue teams on this island.

Last year our 12 teams responded to

296 separate incidents
assisted over 416 people
treated 154 of these 416 who were injured and
recovered 10 people who died in the outdoors and returned them to their families

This equated to over 13,642 person hours or 1,703 working days. Pretty amazing when you consider that it is all done voluntarily and with little recognition!
