Incident report

While team members were raising funds at the Leek Christmas Light switch-on, we were called out, along with Edale Mountain Rescue Team, to locate and recover a walker with an injured knee reportedly having difficulties descending Golden Clough.

The casualty was located with SARLOC and the hill parties quickly arrived to administer pain relief and assist the casualty and his partner back to Edale for their onward journey.

A big turnout on a busy Friday night for both teams.
