Set up in 2010, Lothian 4×4 Response are a group of like minded 4×4 vehicle enthusiasts who have come together with a common interest.

We  aim to provide reliable, discrete and effective logistics support to the emergency services, the local authority and other voluntary groups who attend civil emergencies in our area of coverage, when other arrangements are at full stretch.

Who are we

Lothian 4×4 Response are a group of like minded 4×4 vehicle enthusiasts & support staff that have recently come together with a common interest.

That is, that we have all identified the need for providing transport and logistical support during times of need to Category 1/ Category 2 responders and the voluntary services.

What do we do

Lothian 4×4 Response aim to provide reliable, discrete and effective logistics support to the emergency services, the local authority and other voluntary groups who attend civil emergencies in our area of coverage, when other arrangements are at full stretch.

We are not an emergency service.

Where we cover

We primarily covers the following council areas: East & West Lothian, Midlothian, Edinburgh City, Falkirk, Stirling, Clackmannanshire and The Scottish Borders.

We can if required and resources allow, help out in other council or 4×4 response group areas.  We have regular monthly team meetings to discuss and further our aims.
