We were asked by our Duty Controller to assist a walker with an ankle injury at the top of Fairbrook on the Kinder Plateau. We called out the team and then continued to do some investigation into the casualty location. Although the walker was initially just in our area of responsibility it appeared that he was able to walk slowly with the aid of two sticks. He was making his way down Fairbrook, which is the responsibility of Glossop Mountain Rescue Team. We called GMRT and they took over the incident.

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team is staffed by volunteers who give their time free of charge and is funded entirely by public donations.
