The team was called today to assist a female who had fallen and sustained a lower leg injury whilst out walking in the Cow & Calf area of Ilkley moor. The casualty was located by phone to the locally known 'Crocodile Rock' and members were despatched there to help. Suspecting an ankle fracture the disposable underpads team administered Entinox to the patient before splinting the limb. The team then stretchered the lady down to the car park where a friend collected her and took her to hospital
