Rescue – Beckhole – 15th July; 17:38 – 38/2023
Called by North Yorkshire Police to reports of an incident on the path between Beckhole and Thomason Foss. A lady in a walking party had slipped down an embankment into the stream and was struggling to walk.
Upon arrival on scene we discovered that she had managed to self rescue back to the village but was in considerable pain from chest and head injuries. She and those accompanying her were also wet and suffering from the effects of cold.
We assessed her on scene, administered pain relief and provided warm and dry clothing to her and the rest of the group. We then transported the group up the hill to Goathland to be reunited with the rest of the party until we could hand over to a crew from Yorkshire Ambulance Service.
We had 19 team members deployed for two and a half hours.
