Double tragedy led to creation of life-saving team

> Northumberland National Park Mountain Rescue Team at work. Right, the memorial to the shepherds who died in a blizzard in 1962

It has been 63 years since a heartbreaking double tragedy which led to the formation of a heroic team of volunteers who continue to carry out lifesaving rescue missions.

Shepherds Jock Scott and Willie Middlemass died less than half a mile from their home after becoming caught in a terrible snow storm as they made their way back from Rothbury Mart.
