We were contacted by the North West Ambulance Service with a request to assist them with a collapsed gentleman in his 70’s by the River Goyt in Offerton. They suspected they would need assistance with a stretcher carry out. A local team member arrived just after the ambulance crew and they decided that with his local knowledge on a better way out, the gentleman could be supported and carefully walked out to an easier location, where the ambulance moved to.
