At 13:07 today, with a small number of team members at our Ladybridge Hall base (cleaning vehicles), NWAS (Manchester) contacted the team by pager to request the team’s assistance during a peak demand period with a call to a residential address in the Horwich area of Bolton.

Our BM2 vehicle was despatched with a crew of 3 and they stabilised a 74 year old male casualty on scene until the arrival of an NWAS ambulance which then transported the man to Royal Bolton Hospital.
