Incident report

Team members were engaged with marshalling duties at the annual Roaches Christmas Cracker Fell Race when an 18 year old female runner became distressed with breathing difficulties.

Team members started medical care and were quickly supported by a Team Doctor.  The casualty had only a limited response to the initial treatment so a West Midlands Ambulance was called.  The lady was showing a gradual improvement before she was transferred to a North Staffordshire hospital for further assessment.
