The team was called out by the Ambulance service to attend to a casualty who had reportedly slipped over suffering a dislocated elbow. The husband of the casualty had used the what3words App to accurately report their location. Fortunately, whilst they were some distance from the car park having just completed a circular dog walk around the reservoir, they were only 50m off the Hartlington Moor track. The team drove the ambulance crew to the casualty, and once they had been warmed up, given pain relief and their injury stabilised they were assisted the short distance to a team vehicle and then driven very slowly back to the waiting ambulance and onwards to Harrogate A&E for further tests.
