CALLOUT - Teenager with knee injury 19.11.23

On Sunday afternoon the team was called to assist a teenager who had slipped and sustained a knee injury on steep ground near Caerwys.

Eleven team members who were already at our base attending a Hazardous Ground training course deployed along with 3 Team vehicles.

Welsh Ambulance service treated the casualty and then the team used a stretcher to extract to a waiting Landrover.

We wish the casualty a speedy recovery

We would also like to say a huge thank you to Barlows Caravan Park who treated our team members to well earned coffee and snacks.
