A walker (f, 20), on the return leg of the Waterfalls Trail, fell and heard a crack from her ankle, after which she was unable to stand or walk the last few hundred metres down to Storrs Common. The CRO doctor carried out the casualty care and splinted her badly swollen ankle. Team members lifted the patient on to a stretcher, then carried her to a team Land Rover, to be driven up to the road and meet the YAS road ambulance.
PATIENT UPDATE: On arrival at Airedale General Hospital, the injury was confirmed as a fractured fibula.
