Incident report
The team were called to assist East Midlands Ambulance Service with a lady who had slipped during an evening’s walk. The lady was enjoying the evening by the old Lightwood reservoir when she slipped and sustained an ankle injury.
The Lady was treated by the ambulance crew and then loaded on to the team’s stretcher for a ten minute carry to the awaiting ambulance.
We’d like to pass on our thanks to a local lady walker who raised the alarm after hearing calls for help. She assisted the team in guiding us to the casualty site.
