Our volunteers have demonstrated exceptional dedication and teamwork yesterday by responding to three challenging callouts within a 12-hour period! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿš‘ #mountainrescue #communityspirit

The initial callout involved the evacuation of an injured individual from difficult terrain near the Scouts Pool near Callander. Through effective collaboration with local officers from Police Scotland Forth Valley and crews Scottish Ambulance Service (SAS), we successfully packaged and transported the casualty to an awaiting ambulance. ๐Ÿš‘๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿš” ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ†˜๏ธ

While concluding the first callout, our team swiftly transitioned to a rescue mission on nearby Ben Aโ€™nn, where a minor had sustained an injury while hiking. Once again, mountain rescue volunteers carried out first aid and efficiently evacuated the youth to an awaiting ambulance. โ›‘๏ธ๐Ÿฅพ

The third callout occurred on Ben Lui, where we received valuable assistance from Rescue 199 in locating and aiding a group of individuals who had become lost. Our team worked collaboratively to guide the individuals back to the designated coordination point. ๐Ÿš๐Ÿ—บ๏ธs

We are immensely grateful for the support provided by our neighbouring teams, Oban Mountain Rescue Team, and Lomond Mountain Rescue Team volunteers, whose contributions were instrumental in ensuring the successful resolution of these callouts. ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿค
