A walker (m, 30) stumbled on a rock, on the bridleway just beyond Clapdale Farm. He heard a snap from one knee and fell to the ground, unable to go further. By coincidence, a few team members were supporting Search Dog Kez (and human assistant) in a search-dog demonstration event, just below Trowgill, so two of the team were driven down to the bridleway junction, to scramble up to the casualty. The Land Rover continued down to Clapham, then this and a second Land Rover drove up to Clapdale with the YAS Paramedics and other team members. Having been given mild pain relief, the casualty was ‘packaged’ then stretchered to CRO 3 for transportation down to the road ambulance
