At 11:00 NWAS (Manchester) Control, (again Katherine contacting our Team Leader Garry) requested a team vehicle assist an NWAS (Manchester) Emergency Ambulance at an incident in Farnworth, where snow and icy road conditions were causing problems for the responding Ambulance.

Our BM1 vehicle responded with Elaine, Dave and Steve, arriving on scene to find the male casualty suffering chest pains already on board the NWAS (Manchester) Emergency Ambulance, which was stuck on snow and ice.

Our BM1 crew winched and towed the Ambulance to better road conditions, which then continued its journey to Royal Bolton Hospital.
