Search and Rescue Volunteer (often professional roles exist too)

View this career for different education levels:

Search and Rescue (SAR) volunteers play a vital role in locating and helping people in difficulty, whether lost, injured, or in danger. In the UK, SAR teams operate in various environments, such as mountains, coasts, urban areas, and at sea. Most SAR roles are voluntary, though professional positions exist with organisations like HM Coastguard and the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI). Volunteers train in first aid, navigation, rescue techniques, and teamwork. Duties include responding to emergency callouts, searching for missing people, providing first aid, and working closely with police, ambulance, and fire services. SAR work is demanding but highly rewarding, requiring dedication, physical fitness, and a strong sense of community.
