Incident 32 of 2021:-
28/08/2021, 13.06, Coppermines Valley, SD288986
The bank holiday weekend had started warm and sunny. Cumbria Police asked us to assist a man who had fallen on the track uphill of the Youth Hostel. We despatched only one Land Rover at the time, due to the easy accessibility, and another was ready if required. On arrival the gentleman’s condition was assessed and he was treated for an abrasion to his arm. It was decided that the best course of action was to drive him in our vehicle to his car parked in the village, and a family member would then drive him to hospital for further assessment.
The incident involved 10 volunteer team members for 1.5 hours.
