Request to assist Rossendale Pendle Mountain Rescue Team with a search in Whitworth

The team was contacted at 18:43 by our neighbouring team at Rossendale Pendle MRT who may have potentially needed our teams assistance in the search for a missing person in the Whitworth area.  However after initial enquiries the decision was made by them that they had enough resources available and we were not required.  This incident is not being recorded on our statistics but is shown on the website for interest only.

For further information on this search please visit Rossendale & Pendle MRTs website.

Update: The missing person was found alive and well the following day.
