“We were on our walk, and one minute I was fine, then the next I was on the ground in agony,” says Sally, who broke her left ankle on a hike near Bronte Falls earlier this year. Fortunately, she was able to let the 999 dispatcher know her precise what3words location (///paddocks.imprinted.moons) and get help swiftly. They were on a path that was quite difficult to access by car, so imagine how relieved Sally felt when the Yorkshire Air Ambulance team showed up! #AirAmbulanceWeek #Emergency #999
