Grizedale Forest 5th October 2013 13:59hrs 39/2013

 

The weather was dry with intermittent cloud and sunshine and a light wind.

A couple had set off for a walk in Grizedale Forest but the gentleman had soon become tired. He decided to return to the car whilst his wife carried on walking the dogs. However when she returned, her husband was not yet back. As he had an underlying health condition and had not been feeling too well lately, she was concerned.

The team was actually heavily involved with marshalling a Lakeland Trail Race, but this incident took priority. However, within 10 minutes of deployment we received notification that he had been found safe and well, so the team was stood down. The race at this point had not yet been severely affected.
