Rescue – Dalby Forest – 7 Oct; 12:38 – 50/2023
Called by Dalby Forest Rangers via North Yorkshire Police to a young male teenager with a leg injury following a fall from a mountain bike in Dalby Forest.
The rangers were on scene providing immediate casualty care but called for our assistance to extract the patient from the forest. Once on scene pain relief and splinting was administered by the team before a short carry out to one of our vehicles.
He was then driven along forest trails to the visitor centre and subsequent handover to a Yorkshire Ambulance Service crew for transportation to definitive medical care.
We wish the young man a speedy recovery and hope he is back on his bike soon.
