The team were contacted by Devon & Cornwall Police in the early hours of Wednesday morning to assist with the recovery of an elderly gentleman who had passed away.  Due to the severe icy conditions, the Ambulance Service were unable to reach the village.

 

The team responded by sending three team members together with the Land Rover Ambulance to the location.  The 4x4 Land Rover made it through to the village and swiftly recovered the gentleman from his home and transported him to North Devon District Hospital.

The team were contacted at 18.30 by Devon & Cornwall Police and tasked to search for a missing 83-year old gentleman from the Honiton area.  Given temperatures were already below zero during the evening, an urgent response was co-ordinated.
 
At the time the first team members were arriving, the missing person was reported sighted by a member of the public.  Team members and a Team Land Rover were sent to the reported location.  The gentleman was treated for hypothermia and stretchered to a nearby road, where an ambulance was waiting to take him to hospital.
