The team was deployed to assist a young boy who had suffered an over-the-handlebar fall while mountain biking. He landed on a tree stump, sustaining chest injuries in the process. Team members attended the scene and provided immediate medical treatment before packaging the casualty for transport to a waiting ambulance, which then conveyed him to the hospital. We would like to extend our thanks to the Whinlatter forestry staff for their assistance during the rescue.
