HANTSAR chairman, Tony Privett, said: ‘HANTSAR exists only through the support of all of its volunteers, both operational for searching and support for raising funds.
‘We welcome help from new members for both parts of the team.’
The organisation helps police to search for other items, such as evidence or missing vehicles. The group also helps in cases of civil emergency or natural disaster.
