At 21:14 on Wednesday 15th November 2023, Calder Valley Search and Rescue Team (CVSRT) received a request from Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) to assist with the extraction of a male who had become unwell whilst in woodland close to the centre of Bingley.
YAS were first on scene and provided initial medical care. Upon arrival of the Hazardous Areas Rescue Team (HART), and CVSRT, the casualty was treated for hypothermia then transferred into a warming and protective casualty bag, and onto a stretcher.
Following a short, but tricky stretcher carry, the casualty was taken to the nearby bypass that was temporarily closed by West Yorkshire Police (WYP), and transferred into the awaiting ambulance.
We wish the casualty a speedy recovery.
