Rescue – Kepwick

WEDNESDAY 9th JULY (1850hrs)

As the team were preparing for the mid week training session, we received a call from North Yorkshire Police to provide assistance to a person who had a lower limb injury and was unable to walk on high ground above Kepwick. Both Land Rovers were being prepared for the training session , thus a quick deployment was possible with other team members in their own vehicles heading to village of Kepwick.

From the village , group parties were deployed on foot to the casualty site on Atlay Bank. Following medical assessment of the injured person, he was placed in the casualty bag on the rescue stretcher and wheeled to the extraction point just outside Kepwick where an ambulance and Land Rovers were waiting. . From here the casualty was taken to hospital.

We wish the person a full and speedy recovery

18 members were involved for approx 3 hours
