CRO were called to support Bradford Pothole Club (BPC) with the rescue of a young person from Sand Cavern in Gaping Gill. The casualty had descended into the main chamber of Gaping Gill via the BPC winch and was exploring further cave passages with his father when he fell and injured his hip. The casualty was attended to by BPC members and extracted by BPC and CRO from Sand Cavern back to the main chamber in a stretcher. Once there, he was able to sit in the winch chair to be lifted to the surface; then taken by Yorkshire Air Ambulance to a road ambulance in Clapham village.
