CALL OUT 35 – Injured teenager at Healey Dell
June 25, 2020CALL OUT 33
Saturday saw an earlier than normal wake up for many team members with a standby notification for potential search at 06:50, shortly followed by the call out.
Team members made their way towards Knowl Hill, Scout Moor where the casualty had got themselves disorientated and lost in heavy cloud. Once arriving on scene the weather had lifted slightly and the sun was starting to come through, but it was good to see the casualty had listened well and indeed stayed put to await the arrival of the team rather than trying to then make their own way off the moors. They (along with two small 4 legged friends) we given transport back to their vehicle and although embarrassed, were able to make their own way home.
CALL OUT 34
The second call out came Saturday afternoon at 15:15 with a call to assist NWAS with a mountain biker in Lee Mill Quarry. Upon arrival of the team vehicle to the casualties location, the ambulance had made its way up into the quarry too, and had the casualty on board. Subsequently the team stood down back to the RV before heading back to base for another clean of the vehicle.
