A lady and her family were walking on a route along the top of Kinder Scout. As they were walking past Pym Chair, she slipped and fractured her ankle. She was in significant pain and was unable to walk.
A fast response party was despatched to the location. They administered strong pain relief and splinted her ankle. Further team members arrived to stretcher her back to our vehicles at Edale Cross. From there she was driven down to out base for onward transport to hospital.
