We were called to attend to a lady who had slipped and taken a tumble while walking on Kinder Scout. She was being assisted by a couple of passing walkers who had managed to help her down the first section of the Sandy Hayes descent, but her injuries had become too painful to continue, so they had called the team.
Due to her location and possible complications with her injuries a Coastguard helicopter was requested. They were able to land on a flat area to the side of Sandy Hayes and after a short stretcher carry over rough ground, the lady was loaded in to the helicopter and flown to hospital.
