Callout 2024_073
Injured walker
While the Team was at Stybarrow Crag, a callout was received from a couple requiring help. The Team Leader contacted the couple and established that the pain was likely to be due to fatigue. The caller was advised to continue to the top of Helvellyn where passing walkers gave him some food.
On further contact they confirmed that they were able to continue unaided.
