About Us:

Hampshire Search and Rescue provide qualified search teams to the police to help find high risk, vulnerable missing people across Hampshire.

We are regularly active in Portsmouth, having carried out 23 searches in the area in the last three years. These involved our volunteers providing over 2,100 hours of search time to the people of Portsmouth.

We are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, whatever the weather. In the 13 years since we were formed we have responded to nearly 500 callouts for searches within Hampshire and surrounding counties.

We have many members who live within the Portsmouth area and are always looking to recruit more.

We receive no external funding so are raising funds to replace our Land Rover which we had to retire earlier in the year. 

We need a 4x4 for 

• Delivering teams into and collecting teams from remote wooded areas
• Moving a casualty from the ‘find’ to the nearest road to allow handover to an ambulance team
• Deploying water kit and teams to hard-to-access areas
• Acting as a mobile control centre in the event our other vehicles were not available (e.g. snow, ice)

Thank you for your support and good luck!
