2019-33: Thorpe Cloud

Female walker rescued after breaking ankle at Thorpe Cloud

Posted by on

#CALLOUT: After a busy few days at #WhaleyBridge the team were called out just before 3pm on Sunday 4th August 2019 to #ThorpeCloud. A lady in her thirties had been out walking with her husband and daughter when she slipped descending Thorpe Cloud. She was treated on scene by the team for a suspected fractured ankle before being carried down to Thorpe Pasture and driven in the Land Rover to a waiting East Midlands Ambulance Service land ambulance crew who took over her care and transported her to the Royal Derby Hospital for further treatment.

The vehicles have been returned to the garage and made ready for the next callout. We continue to monitor the situation at the #ToddbrookReservoir.
