A visitor (m, 80) was reported to have collapsed near Pecca Bridge on the outward leg of the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail. The team responded, as did the Yorkshire Air Ambulance. After assessment by the team’s doctor and being given sugary sweets, the casualty was stretchered up to a team Land Rover (The helicopter had been called away to a higher priority incident.). After a further check-up, he was driven to his holiday accommodation where YAS paramedics would be able to assess him using equipment from their road ambulance.
Volunteer hours: 36
