Scafell Pike

North West Ambulance Service received a report of intermittent whistling heard high on Scafell Pike. The MRT Team Leader assessed the situation with the caller and Cumbria Police, determining there was no clear distress pattern and no reliable indication of a person in difficulty. The decision was made not to deploy the team.

Outcome: no team deployment; call treated with good intent

Support the team who responded. They turn out unpaid, in all weather — every team is a volunteer-run charity.
