We could not hide from the rain BUT we could not care less… What a great day with 3 wonderful ladies! If it wasn’t for the fact that we will see them all again tomorrow on another walk, I would be very sad for it to be over!

Our Mountain Rescue Team is needed not only high up the mountains. We assist the ambulance and other emergency services also if they can’t get to the casualty due to remote locations.
We wish the casualty swift recovery!

Incident No.58 on 20th May
Type: Full Callout
Location: Egremont
Start: 18:03
Finish: 21:05
Duration: 3h 2m
Weather: Dry, cloudy
Teams involved: 24 Wasdale MRT
Grid Reference: NY014113

As team members were travelling to Monday evening training, an alert was received from North West Ambulance Service about a walker who had slipped down a river bank and injured her ankle. The location was not accessible to the ambulance crew so an assist was needed.

Team members were quickly on scene and the walker was assessed and given pain relief before splinting the ankle. A short stretcher carry followed to the ambulance before handover and continuing on to base to training. We wish the walker a quick recovery.

**HALF TERM**
⭐️KIDS COME HALF PRICE⭐️

We have 4 walks in our offer for half term break and we would love to see more LITTLE LEGS! Bring them with you half price!
Branstree and Selside Pike and Tarn Crag and Grey Crag are particularly good for children with its grassy terrain and no extreme ascents. More adventurous children can enjoy Grassmoor, Wandope, Crag Hill, Whiteless Pike (and Bluebells) and Kentmere Horseshoe - age is not a limit!
