Whilst the team was busy with our annual Wharfedale Three Peaks fund raiser we were called out by the North Yorkshire Police to assist a lady with a broken ankle. Having walked all the way over Simon's Seat the casualty unfortunately slipped on the loose track on the way down near the bottom of the hill and damaged their ankle. The team splinted the injury and stretchered her off the hill for onward transport to the hospital.
