Assistance to Swaledale MRT

MONDAY 13TH JUNE 2022

Our fifth call-out in the space of four days this lunchtime when we went to assist our colleagues from Swaledale MRT with an injured walker just over the border in their area. Given the location it was felt sensible for both Teams to respond – and Teesdale and Weardale Search & MRT were also on standby. Casualty subsequenty evacuated to an ambulance.

A good example of joint working between neighbouring mountain rescue teams and the Yorkshire Ambulance Service. Five Cleveland MRT members attended for approximately 2.25 hours including return travel time.
