The team were at base undergoing their annual BLS assessment when we were contacted by Cumbria Police with concerns over a missing vulnerable person. With the information that the person was highly likely to be in the Ghyll Head area we were able to quickly deploy search teams, including the two team searchdogs Cullin and Fern. At 23:00hrs Searchdog Cullin gave his handler (John D) an indication of a find. The casualty was found alive but suffering the effects of the cold and wet conditions. Once stabilised the casualty was stretchered out to an awaiting land ambulance. After conducting an on scene debrief the team were back at base to re pack kit at 00:45hrs.
