Scarborough & Ryedale Mountain Rescue say they're honoured that 30 of their Operational Team Members are in receipt of a Queen's Jubilee medal.
The medals will be awarded in a special ceremony this week. A further three members also qualify through their time with the team and will be receiving their medals from their employer, Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust, in recognition of their dedication to that service.
To qualify for the award you must be a serving frontline member having completed five full years of service.
One of the members has completed 32 years with the team and in total the thirty three have given 415 years of service to the team.
Scarborough & Ryedale Mountain Rescue added:
'In #volunteerweek2022 this is fitting recognition of the professional operational service our voluntary charity provides however without the dedication of our support membership, our less experienced operational team members and our trainees we could not do what we do.
Today we also recognise the understanding and support of our families, friends and employers and the financial support to the charity from our local community and businesses.
This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.
A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
