Overview
- The 19-year-old fell about 20 metres at Dovedale just before 2pm on Saturday and was found with serious injuries.
- Derby Mountain Rescue worked with East Midlands Ambulance Service and EMAS HART to treat and transfer the casualty to DLRAA Helimed 54.
- The air ambulance flew him to the Stoke trauma unit, where his mother says he is awaiting surgery for a shoulder injury.
- As that response wrapped up, the rescue team was re-tasked to a separate missing-person report involving a walker last seen on Thorpe Cloud.
- The walker was later contacted in Ilam and confirmed safe, and the volunteer rescue team noted its reliance on public donations to fund operations.
