The team were called out on Wednesday 17th July just after 11am to reports of a fallen walker near Derrick.

A group had been out walking when on of them, a lady in her 70s had fallen from a stile injuring her left wrist and sustaining a head injury. Her wrist was splinted and head bandaged by the team. To add to the excitement, a large herd of cows with calves were in one of the fields, they were extremely interested in our vehicle and team members.

The lady was carried to the road by team stretcher, handed over to the care of East Midlands Ambulance Service and taken to Chesterfield Royal Hospital for further assessment and treatment.
