PREPARATION ~ PREVENTION ~ PEACE OF MIND

Dorset Search and Rescue (DorSAR) does not only focus on reactive Lowland Rescue. Most of us have grown up with the teaching "Prevention is Better that Cure" and with this in mind is active in promoting these preventative measures.

Herbert Protocol


Herbert Protocol

The Herbert Protocol is a simple risk reduction tool to help the police in their search for people with dementia who go missing. It encourages carers or family members of adults living with dementia to collate information on those who are vulnerable on to the Herbert Protocol form, which can be given to the police if they go missing.

Get Found


Get Found

To date our long standing initiative focused on our young people Get Found has encouraged children of all ages with their parents to take some time considering what they could/would do in the event that they become lost.
