A man had to be air lifted to hospital after falling down a quarry.
On Sunday afternoon the Rossendale and Pendle mountain rescue team were called to Witches Quarry near Pendle Hill.
Reports had been made that a climber had fallen and sustained multiple injuries.
Luckily, three of the mountain rescue team members were also climbing at the quarry and were able to offer swift assistance.
A spokesperson for the mountain rescue team said: "Early this afternoon at around 1.55, the team were called to Witches Quarry near Pendle Hill to a climber that had taken a substantial fall.
"Three of our team members were also climbing at the quarry when the incident occurred, so they were quickly able to assist other climbers there in administering basic first aid and ensured the team were rapidly mobilised.
"The air ambulance landed on scene and ambulance crews also attended the incident.
"They treated the casualty, who had sustained multiple injuries in the fall.
"He was given pain relief before being placed onto a stretcher by our team volunteers and carried to the helicopter for transportation onto hospital.
"We wish the gentleman a speedy recovery."
