Sunday 11th October at 13.36hrs, we were requested by the North West Ambulance Service to attend to a 39-year-old male who had fallen from a swing in a wood.
With injuries reported as ‘the ankle facing the wrong way’, we assisted the ambulance crew with casualty care and evacuated the male through woods on our mountain rescue stretcher to the ambulance.
13 volunteers of Bowland Pennine mountain rescue team were involved in this rescue and wish the casualty a speedy recovery.
