A real question of convenience for councillors
A QUESTION of convenience has been raised by Ribble Valley councillors. Members of the bor- currently used by people,

Mock mountain rescue is given a real-life feel on Saddle Fell
by Natalie Cox
A MOCK exercise nearly turned into a real-life res cue for a Ribble Valley-
based team. Members of the Bowland
Pennine Mountain Rescue Team had ju s t finished an annual exercise in the Trough of Bowland when they were
called to a real life situation on Saddle Fell, just west of Chip ping. However, paramedics from
the North-West Air Ambulance were first on the scene, airlifting a casualty to safety. Twenty-five members of the
Dunsop Bridge-based moun tain rescue team had been tak ing part in the weekend exer cise, putting their search and medical skills to the test in a
scenario which saw them look ing for a group of fell runners who had been missing overnight. - Once the missing runners
were located, four appeared to be in need of medical treatment and two were evacuated the two''miles from th e top of Clougha, a large rocky mound at the north end of the Trough of Bowland, across open moor land and on to the Bowland
Pennine team's headquarters in the Ribble Valley. The aim of th e exercise,
which always takes place at the end of January, is to enable local rescuers to share their expertise with counterparts forming other local teams. This year's event had been organised by training officer Mr Phil Hill. Team members are pictured
taking part in the evacuation from the fell.
