On Thursday 21 April, volunteers from Patterdale Mountain Rescue Team were called by the North West Ambulance Service to reports of a girl who had fallen off rocks and into Aira Beck, near to Parkgate Farm.

When the team arrived at the scene the girl, who had been out walking with friends, was being treated for her injuries by paramedics from the North West Ambulance Service. Team members assisted with the stretcher extraction from the scene of her fall to the waiting ambulance, from where she was transferred to the Cumberland Infirmary, Carlisle, for further treatment.

Thankfully the injuries were of a minor nature and the team wishes her well.
