We were called at 12:30 to a walker at Teggs Nose Country Park in Macclesfield who was suffering from a medical issue and could no longer continue. As conditions in the area were very snowy, we were asked to provide our 4×4 vehicles to assist with an evacuation. However as we arrived we were advised that a local farmer had been able to transport the gentleman on his quad bike and kindly take him on to hospital, so the team were stood down.
