CALL-OUT 48/2023 MONDAY 4TH DECEMBER 2023 We were contacted this afternoon by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust regarding a woman who had fallen and sustained an ankle injury (and was unable to stand) whilst walking with a friend on the Cleveland Way between Staithes and Port Mulgrave. One of our Team Doctors was nearby so he made his way to assess the situation whilst others headed there using a combination of two Team Land Rovers and their personal vehicles. After a while it became clear that the casualty had been assisted by other people to a nearby farm and so our Doctor was redirected there to assess her injury. Other Team resources were then scaled back leaving just one Land Rover crew to assist. It was later decided that we would transport the casualty to James Cook hospital for treatment there. We wish her well with her recovery. Well done to the farmer who helped to get her somewhere warm and dry and also to the person who contacted the ambulance service, later providing useful information when our Call-out Officer phoned him. We understand that someone was also going to very kindly transport the casualty’s friend back to Whitby to collect their car. In addition to five Team members who attended the farm, nine others were involved or en route when stood-down. By the time the Land Rover crew got back to Base the incident had lasted just over three-hours. (Library photo - and no, it's not a Land Rover!)
CALL-OUT 47/2023 SATURDAY 2ND DECEMBER 2023 (1623 HOURS) We were contacted this afternoon by North Yorkshire Police to go to the aid of walker doing the Lyke Wake Walk who had fallen in water between Rosedale and Egton Bridge, thereby becoming wet and very cold. We sent a Mountain Rescue ‘Phone Find’ request to the walker’s phone in an effort to obtain a precise location whilst a Team member who lives in the area made his way from home in his own vehicle in an effort to locate her. Other Team members were directed to our Base to collect the Team Land Rovers. The location was potentially in the area of Scarborough and Ryedale Mountain Rescue Team so they were also alerted, although once the walker responded to our Phone Find message it was apparent that she was just within the Cleveland MRT area on Glaisdale Moor. SRMRT remained available to provide assistance if necessary - many thanks to them for that. Driving conditions were not easy due to snow and ice. Fortunately we were stood down by the Police as the walker had managed to flag down a passing motorist who was then taking her to a place of safety to get warmed up. Our ‘local’ Team member came across them a few minutes later and was able to confirm that the walker was uninjured. All personnel were then stood-down. Many thanks to that motorist for stopping to help the stranded walker and for transporting her onwards. In addition to our local Team member, five others were involved or en route (with eleven others on standby). The incident last for approximately one-hour. (Library photo)
CALL-OUT 46/2023 THURSDAY 30TH NOVEMBER 2023 (2115 HOURS) We were contacted last night by North Yorkshire Police to go to the aid of four occupants of a car that had crashed in wintery conditions, approximately 9-miles east of Stokesley, midway between Kildale and Commondale. The Police anticipated some problems in reaching the scene due to the weather and road conditions, hence the request to us. We deployed two double-crewed Team Land Rovers from our Base and other Team members were put on standby in case needed. Owing to poor mobile phone coverage in that area neither the Police nor our Call-out Officer were able to re-contact the car occupants - it is believed that one of them had originally raised the alarm by walking to higher ground. Eventually our Land Rover crews reached the accident and located the occupants who, although cold, fortunately did not need medical treatment at the scene. As they were stranded, we then transported them home, approximately 6-miles to the Lingdale area on the far side of the A171 Guisborough to Whitby road. The Police were updated and advised about recovery requirements for the damaged vehicle and about damage to a wall. Five Team members were involved (with nine others on standby) for just over 2.25-hours by the time they returned to Base. (Library photo - an old one!)
EVENT CANCELLED - ESKDALE EUREKA We are advised that the Eskdale Eureka run that was scheduled to take place this coming Sunday (3rd December) has been cancelled owing to safety concerns. This is due to the already icy conditions on roads in the area which will be likely to impact on travelling and also to related logistical problems at the start / finish. We understand that the organisers hope to reschedule the event early next year. Runners - please share with your family & friends etc who may have entered or intended going to the event.
Many congratulations to the five Cleveland MRT members who passed the Mountain Rescue England and Wales Casualty Care exam earlier today. Some took the exam for the first time, whilst others were re-qualifying (which is required every 3-years). The exam consists of a written test followed by practical scenarios covering trauma and medical conditions. This is the culmination of weeks of training input from the Team’s medical officer assisted by our Team doctors and others (including from the ambulance services) plus a range of ‘training bodies’. Thank you and well done to everybody involved! Many thanks to Swaledale Mountain Rescue Team for hosting the exams for us and other Teams in the north-east.
