PLEASE BE AWARE: UNOFFICIAL CBMRT MERCHANDISEYou have to be a particularly low kind of person to try to make money off the back of a volunteer mountain rescue team, but unfortunately, that’s exactly what appears to be happening.We’ve been made aware of a Facebook account advertising T-shirts featuring our name and logo, and even tagging some of our wonderful followers in an attempt to encourage sales.We want to make it absolutely clear that these T-shirts have NOTHING to do with Central Beacons Mountain Rescue Team. We have not authorised their production or sale, and not a single penny from any purchases will come to our team.We’re a charity run entirely by volunteers. Our team members give up their evenings, weekends, family time and, quite often, their sleep to help people in difficulty. We receive no government funding and rely on the generosity of the public to keep our vehicles on the road, our equipment maintained and our volunteers ready to respond when someone needs us.So, to see someone using our name, our logo and the goodwill of our supporters to line their own pockets is, frankly, pretty disgusting.We do have our own official range of T-shirts, designed by one of our team members and a talented local graphic designer. These are the only official CBMRT T-shirts, and every purchase genuinely supports our work.You can find them here: www.cbmrt.org.uk/shop/In the meantime, if you’re tagged in one of these posts, please don’t click the link or make a purchase. We’d appreciate you reporting the account and helping us make others aware.We spend enough time rescuing people from difficult situations without having to rescue our own reputation from people trying to exploit it.
