What the bavarian red cross (BRK) does: sanitary service, water and mountain rescue, search for missing persons, care services. The new e-bike squadron has made it possible to expand the resources available for deployment even further. The volunteer members of the BRK-bereitschaft ebersdorf come on duty with their e-bikes, for example for rough events on wide-ranging land, but also for a search for people.

In february of last year, the deputy head of the district emergency response team, dennis busch, came up with the idea of setting up an e-bike squadron – for two reasons: to expand the range of operations and to make volunteering more attractive.
