I am a volunteer and I love my team. I see how hard they work and how much passion they have.
Who is Land Search and Rescue? Land Search and Rescue is a national volunteer organisation which provides land search and rescue services to the lost, missing and injured all over New Zealand.

During the month of May. Land Search and Rescue are shining a light by bringing awareness through the Searchlight Campaign.
