Kent Search and Rescue

Kent Search and Rescue (Lowland) exists to offer a special service to the Police, RAF Search & Rescue Units, other emergency services and local councils throughout Kent, and the rest of the UK if called upon. The unit is manned by volunteers and is operational 365 days a year. We are activated at the request of the police and other emergency organisations. This is achieved by a telephone call to our duty officer, who will in turn activate the members by way of a paging system.

On average 1800 people go missing in Kent every year, although they do not all require a full call out or search. We have a high percentage in the Kent area of people that can be classified as being vulnerable and will need our assistance. These include the elderly and those suffering from senile dementia and children that go missing for a number of reasons.


Our aim is to alleviate the suffering and distress, not only to the missing person but to their families
and
To reduce the pressures of manpower resources of the police and other emergency services
