    Mapyx is justifiably proud to be associated with this important charity
whose members are highly committed to delivering premier search and rescue
services.

    Mark Lewis, the Communications Officer for MREW, stated
"Digital mapping has been a project we've been investigating for some time
and the wait has certainly paid off in choosing Mapyx as a partner to supply
a solution to our specification at no cost. Since our first meeting with
Mapyx I have never looked back.

    Every recognised team and member of Mountain Rescue England &
Wales will benefit from the Quo package receiving a free copy with associated
maps.

    This is a great achievement for MREW to enable a common GIS
platform to be available across England & Wales - and without teams having to
spend any of their limited funds."

    Mark Salter, Head of Partners and Alliances said, "Ordnance
Survey is pleased to congratulate Mapyx Limited in its achievement of
becoming Official GIS and Digital Mapping Partner of Mountain Rescue
England and Wales. This is a great accolade to Mapyx Limited who's software
Quo is a superb digital mapping solution, a fact clearly acknowledged by
MREW. Ordnance Survey recognises the outstanding work of MREW and our
topographic maps will continue to assist them in their important life saving
work."

    Chairman of Mapyx, Steven Wood, stated "All of us at Mapyx
feel privileged to offer our support, products and services to MREW. We fully
recognise the valuable contribution that MREW provides to both the public and
other services. They not only save countless lives but also offer valuable
support to other organisations in times of emergency. We are honoured that
MREW asked for our assistance and Mapyx look forward to supporting them
immediately and in the future.

    MREW is a charity and not only needs support and funding from
the public at large, but also needs improved technological capability, which
Mapyx is pleased to deliver. Our first step will be to ensure MREW has full
digital mapping capability for the whole of England & Wales and then Mapyx
will provide MREW with better search and rescue technology, which is
currently under development."

    Mapyx Quo is 100% FREE fully-functional digital mapping
software that has won numerous awards and is the optimum choice for those who
operate in an outdoor environment whether for personal or commercial use and
of course, chosen by MREW, the experts in saving lives.
