Number 3 of a busy day. We were asked to assist Kendal MRT with the treatment and evacuation of a woman who had collapsed suffering from the effects of heat. She was near the summit of Ill Bell. Before we got there a helicopter appeared from nowhere and took her away. It took us a bit by surprise, but it saved us a fair bit of sweat.
