Raise money for First Response Unit

Every day, thousands of people head into the Whakarewarewa forest on bike, by foot or on horseback. And when things go wrong - the First Response Unit is ready to provide urgent medical support. 

The First Response Unit responds to about 700 calls for help in the forest each year – that’s an average of two rescues per day. 

Thanks to the generous support of people like you, the Rotorua Mountain Bike Club is able to fund this world-class forest rescue service.

Help support the Rotorua Mountain Bike Club's First Response Unit which provides a 7 day a week medical response service throughout the trails in Rotorua's Whakarewarewa Forest.
