00:00This is Errori, a breathtaking part of North Wales that draws visitors in their millions.

00:08But this wild landscape can also hold dangers.

00:14And when things go wrong, the busiest network of rescue agencies in the country must come together.

00:23We found this female.

00:26Saving lives.

00:28I like it down there.

00:30In a landscape like no other.

00:34That's a proper job there.

00:49I'm proud of being part of a team.

00:52It doesn't matter what skill set you've got.

00:55If you're not able to be part of a team then it's not going to work.

01:03In Errori's volunteer rescue groups, each individual member brings their own key strengths.

01:09We have people from all walks of life. We have builders. We have chefs. We have police. We have doctors, which is fantastic. And if they're doctors that are mountaineers, that's even better.

01:23New trainees are the lifeblood of these teams. This year, Aberglaslyn Mountain Rescue welcomed four new recruits.

01:31Including husband and wife, Tom and Max.

01:33The pros of being on a mountain rescue team together.

01:37There's loads.

01:39Probably the biggest con could be there's nobody cooking dinner for you when you get home.

01:45Being a trainee is exciting. And every call out is a learning opportunity. So it's terrifying and exciting all at once.

01:55And sooner or later, all trainees must earn their red jacket. For real.

02:01deal��면

02:13Is he getting home?

02:14I'm currently up to a moddog on a route called Christmas Curry. And my friend was dislocating his arms.

02:21Is there a lot of pain?

02:23The injured climber is a man called Connor. He and his climbing partner Harvey are at Craig Bulch y Moch on a popular climbing route known as Christmas Currie.

02:37But Connor has dislocated his shoulder, leaving Harvey stuck on a ledge 18 metres below him.

02:44With darkness falling, Aberglaslyn Mountain Rescue heads to the scene.

02:58We had four of our trainees, Matt and Tom and Max and Owen.

03:04The biggest problem that we've got is dislocating children on the top.

03:08Yeah.

03:09Getting him down.

03:10Essentially, we had two casualties. Connor on the top that had a dislocated shoulder.

03:17I think you're Kaz Carers and Haulers.

03:22And we had a stranded climber, Harvey.

03:27Because of Connor's injury, he was unable to take the rope in as Harvey was ascending.

03:35Does that make sense? So you've got two jobs in one.

03:37Getting dark just makes it, makes it harder.

03:43One group of rescuers heads up to the crag top.

03:47Yeah, helmet and harness on.

03:50The challenge that we are faced with is getting the equipment to the top.

03:55Because we have to climb the very slippy, the very steep ascent path.

04:02And you're carrying stretchers and ropes, but also your own kit as well.

04:08Others stay at the roadside to coordinate, lighting up the sheer rock face where Harvey is stranded.

04:14That day, the friends had planned what they thought would be a straightforward climb.

04:24I was leading.

04:25I got to about halfway up and there was a very good hold on the left.

04:30I reached out to it and it was quite outstretched.

04:33I heard a clunk noise and there was a gap of about three fingers from where you normally have your shoulder to the top of the bone.

04:41And I could just feel there was a hollow in the shoulder.

04:44Connor was clearly in huge amounts of pain.

04:46So it became apparent that the best decision was to call for assistance and call Mountain Rescue.

04:51Within an hour, the rescue team reaches Connor.

05:06How are you to begin with?

05:08So my left shoulder is dislocated.

05:11OK. In terms of your mate, how is he anchored?

05:14He's anchored on a hex and two cams down there.

05:18We could have both been killed if Harvey had fallen and our anchor had failed.

05:22We would have both been pulled down to the bottom of the crag.

05:26Stay on that.

05:27Max, you're on that.

05:29I'm backing these two.

05:31The team divide up the tasks.

05:35I'll just put this in.

05:37Have you got two cam beans?

05:38I was born with an upper limb difference.

05:40I've spent most of my life proving that I can do stuff, sometimes because of my disability.

05:45But coming into the team, I knew that I couldn't let my ego get in the way.

05:50And there were things that I probably couldn't do or had to adapt.

05:54So finding ways around things and knowing my own limitations.

05:59But I think that's important for everyone.

06:01We're going to go over in our system and not until you and says.

06:05While some look after Connor's injuries...

06:11So he's had some pentrox, he's a little bit more comfortable now.

06:15Others work on getting Harvey to safety.

06:18Slow it down.

06:19Work together.

06:20If it's loaded, put it through the braking.

06:22OK?

06:23I was on the radio with Yuan.

06:26It's fast, says, hospital.

06:28Making sure that he's happy with the speed that he's been lowered at.

06:31All right, Yuan, we are now moving again.

06:33Are you good to go?

06:35Yeah, I'm fine.

06:36Keep going.

06:45Yeah, just to lay now, I'm with the cars now.

06:48We're going to set up over.

06:50Yeah, receive.

06:51Let us know when you're ready to go.

06:54The ropes team manages to get Harvey back up the cliff.

06:59Fantastic.

07:00But meanwhile, Connor's injuries are proving problematic.

07:05Walking was not an option.

07:07Even him sitting up slightly was barely an option.

07:10The team have to make a tough call.

07:13It's fairly close to the top of the crag,

07:15but he's got a dislocated shoulder.

07:18We had to give him a lot of painkillers.

07:20The call that's come from there is,

07:22can you request an A36-4-1?

07:24The helicopter really was the only option to get him off.

07:26It was a crazy moment because of the amount of downdraft from the helicopter.

07:47There were branches flying off.

07:49The pain from dislocating the shoulder was really bad.

07:55It was intense pain.

08:02As soon as the winching started, it was just relief.

08:06I had the feeling that every metre I moved was a metre close to hospital.

08:16We think we're very smoothly, like it should, like we're trained for.

08:19But it's a different thing talking about it

08:22to being right underneath it

08:25and watching just a couple of do's disappear off into the night sky.

08:34We really appreciate that.

08:36Got an easy winch from that position.

08:37Great working with you.

08:38Many times.

08:40That's all.

08:41I hope to see you again.

08:42No, no.

08:42Just a big thanks to all you guys.

08:51Spent the whole evening out in the dark and the wind and the cold

08:55to come and help us.

08:56I'm glad that you do what you do.

08:59And I hope not to need it again.

09:03All right.

09:04And the successful rescue has confirmed to Drew

09:09that his new recruits are now ready

09:11to be fully-fledged team members.

09:14They proved themselves that they are qualified,

09:19able to be part of a team.

09:22Getting the red jacket means so much.

09:26It actually makes me a bit emotional talking about it.

09:28Hello.

09:29Hello.

09:30OK.

09:31What are you doing?

09:32When you first join,

09:33you want the red jacket,

09:34but actually you soon realise,

09:37no, there's more to this.

09:39I'm just very proud of you all.

09:41Everybody did a fantastic job.

09:43That's a proper job there.

09:44Can we just get a quick team photo?

09:47Yeah.

09:47Now?

09:48We've done.

09:49They earned their red coats that evening.

09:51Across Errori's 823 square miles,

10:05one of the biggest challenges rescuers face

10:08is when someone is missing.

10:10North Wales Police have to assist

10:12with a lot of missing person searches.

10:15They'll be for many, many different reasons.

10:18And in Errori and some of the really difficult

10:23and wild places that we've got,

10:25we can have a very difficult time searching for people.

10:32Here, bringing together specialist teams

10:35with the right skills can make all the difference.

10:38North Wales Police are looking for a man

10:53who has been reported missing by his family.

10:55His car's been found between Bermot and Harlech,

11:02near the coastal village of Llanbedr.

11:06But he's been gone for around 12 hours now

11:09under a fears for his safety.

11:12Quite often when police are managing a missing person search,

11:16and particularly high-risk ones,

11:18we might bring other agencies in as well

11:20to find the person as quickly as we can do.

11:22The police need more feet on the ground,

11:26so they call in volunteers

11:27from South Snowdonia Search and Rescue.

11:32But there's another unique partnership

11:35they think can help too.

11:39SADA, the Search and Rescue Dog Association.

11:42So, Bon is a black labrador.

11:49We homed him when he was six months old.

11:52He's very determined.

11:53He's got a bit of a reputation for being a bit of a thug.

11:57He won't stop at anything.

12:00There is a time pressure to get things done.

12:03A search is essentially collecting lots of pieces of information

12:06to try and work out what's happened to somebody.

12:09The more information we have,

12:11the better we can target our searches.

12:14Every second counts.

12:18So John and the team head straight out to search the fields,

12:22near where the man's car was found.

12:24OK. Up. Up.

12:31Good lad.

12:33Barney is an open area dog.

12:35He will run around the side of mountains or urban areas

12:37and he'll look for any human person in that area.

12:44Right, off we go then.

12:47He will work his way through anything.

12:49With the fields clear, they move on to check the riverbank.

12:55Go on.

12:57In you go.

12:58Find him.

13:02And by now, the light is dropping.

13:06Find him.

13:08Go on.

13:10Barney works exclusively off scent.

13:14Go all the way down.

13:16Go round.

13:16In the dark, there's no impact on their ability

13:20because they're not using their eyes.

13:24It is just a big game of hide and seek.

13:28Ready?

13:28Are we going?

13:29Find him, then.

13:31It's now 9pm.

13:34And despite more than three hours of searching,

13:37there's still no sign of the missing man.

13:40So we've completed this loop now.

13:42Are there any other taskings over?

13:43I'm just like...

13:44Let you return to the RV and the liaison.

13:49OK, I'll receive down.

13:51Then, the team spots something lying on the ground.

13:57He's a current account.

13:59What's the name?

14:00Oi, what's this?

14:02Why didn't you tell me about that?

14:03I don't know.

14:04No, I don't know what's the name of the thing.

14:11Bop!

14:12Bop!

14:14Bop!

14:15OK, yep.

14:16Bop, bach, bach.

14:17Nope.

14:18Oh.

14:20Bop!

14:21Bop!

14:23We've managed to eliminate the areas immediately around where the car was located,

14:28which then means, where do you look next?

14:31They've covered a huge amount of ground,

14:35but the team must now decide how long they keep going for.

14:39As a general rule, I don't think anyone wants to go home while the person's not there,

14:44but the dogs can't work indefinitely.

14:46If we go home and rest, then we can come the next morning

14:50and we can do things where the search is going to be more targeted.

14:53Then, as the team are preparing to stand down,

14:58new information comes in from police.

15:00We have received a ping from WhatsApp.

15:05That puts us on that black arrow line there.

15:10It's the airfield.

15:13Mobile phone data puts the man's last known location

15:16close to a nearby abandoned airfield.

15:20The team heads over to check it out.

15:25Come on.

15:26Come on.

15:27Buildings are an obvious place that people would go.

15:32Provides some shelter.

15:33It's warmer.

15:35We're always focused on where the person's likely to be,

15:38and buildings are one of them.

15:39This building...

15:41There's no voices inside.

15:43It's like this one thought it was from the side here.

15:46The team thinks they can hear sounds coming from inside one of the buildings.

15:50Looks like a takeaway on the table and a bottle of wine.

15:56Could have been there sometimes.

15:57Some chips in there.

15:58So when we arrived, the door was closed.

16:03It's locked from the inside.

16:05That would suggest that the person was not in there.

16:10But at the same time, there were lights on,

16:12and there was food on the table and things,

16:13which would suggest that people had been in there.

16:16Hello?

16:18Anyone in?

16:19Police officers looking for a missing person.

16:27Hello?

16:28Can you come to the door?

16:31Can you come to the door, please?

16:33We'll have to break the door down if you don't come to the door.

16:39Despite a promising start,

16:41the dog's lack of interest suggests there's no-one here.

16:46This unit, are we totally happy the dogs would indicate

16:50if someone was in there now?

16:51Yes.

16:52Yeah, that's excellent news.

16:53Does that save us?

16:54I'm not saying he hasn't been there, but it's not fresh.

16:56But mainly, we're targeting this.

16:58They've now been searching for over five hours.

17:02You always want to find the person.

17:04It's really good that you've cleared the area.

17:07But what you really want is that person to be back

17:09with the family that they're from.

17:12I'm going to stand down from, obviously, the ground search tonight.

17:14There's a few other inquiries for us to go on with,

17:16with local pubs and so on, and see where we're at.

17:18I'll review it with him back at the station later

17:20and see where we're at in the morning.

17:26With no new evidence or any clues as to where to search next,

17:31the police make the tough decision to stand down the teams.

17:37You've done the best you can do.

17:40By not finding somebody, we've eliminated a big area,

17:44which means that the search can be more targeted.

17:49And, thanks to the work of Sardar and Bountain Rescue,

18:01North Wales Police were able to focus their search.

18:0524 hours later, the missing man was found

18:08outside the team's search area, safe and well.

18:12When the person turns up and the person turns up well,

18:17the people who were on the job the night before

18:18all breathe the sight of relief.

18:21It makes you feel great.

18:27Rescuers bring much more than just technical skills to their teams.

18:32They bring their own personalities and strengths too.

18:36Hospital nurse Steve volunteers with Ogwen Valley Mountain Rescue.

18:40In my line of work, you actually come across a lot of people

18:44that are very apprehensive

18:45and most of my job is convincing people that I'm there to help.

18:49It takes a lot of care to build some trust in that scenario.

18:56And that's especially true when the person being rescued is a child.

19:02Sometimes that'll be the first time that they've been on an adventure trip

19:05and it can be quite a scary experience anyway,

19:08let alone if you then get injured.

19:10It's a very deep-cut gorge.

19:31It's got fantastic scenery.

19:35It's incredibly popular with co-steering trips.

19:41Step forward, 13-year-old Izzy.

19:44And again, we need to hear the clock.

19:47We need to hear the clock, OK?

19:48My mum would describe me as funny.

19:53I like dancing, I like singing, acting as well.

19:57It's late summer and Izzy is on a school trip to Aruri,

20:01three hours away from her home in Birmingham.

20:04This was my first overnight trip.

20:06Obviously, I've never really been away from home,

20:08so I was quite scared at first.

20:11But as soon as I got on the coach with my friends, I was so excited.

20:15I took a photo of literally everything I could.

20:17The plan was gorge walking.

20:21It was like scrambling on wet rocks.

20:24I slipped.

20:27I said straight away, I've dislocated my knee and everyone was, like, thinking I was joking.

20:33But, yeah, I knew straight away, pretty much.

20:44Izzy has fallen deep in the Avonvy Gorge and can't walk.

20:51Our Gwen Valley Mountain Rescue is called to get her out.

20:57This is an ideal mountain rescue job because there is no-one else really with the skill set

21:02to be able to get into that kind of environment.

21:06So, what's first aid kit? He wants a stretcher.

21:09Kevin is the main group, then he goes with full leg quick.

21:14I joined Mountain Rescue before I became a nurse,

21:17and I think Mountain Rescue is what kind of pushed me towards becoming a nurse in the first place.

21:23So, yeah, drugs kit's on my bag then, OK?

21:28Three hours since she fell,

21:30Steve and the team make it through the gorge to Izzy.

21:35She is particularly anxious about any medication.

21:38OK.

21:39She is cold.

21:41She's lying in a very wet place.

21:43I haven't injured myself much before, so I was quite shocked, really.

21:46The pain was, like, ten out of ten.

21:49Hello.

21:49My name's Steve.

21:52I'm one of the medics on the team, OK?

21:54I work as an ED nurse.

21:56How are you doing?

21:58Tell me honestly.

21:59Not great.

22:01Not great at all.

22:02All right.

22:04Izzy was in a little kind of hollow with a good amount of water flowing just behind her.

22:09It was quite cold and quite pale at the time as well,

22:12and was very upset with the whole situation.

22:15I know my mouth.

22:16I know.

22:20When she said she wanted to go,

22:22I was a bit surprised because it was completely out of her comfort zone.

22:26She's not an outdoorsy person at all.

22:29I was a bit anxious.

22:30She'd never left me before.

22:32We'll get you out of here as soon as we can.

22:35Whenever the parent isn't around,

22:37it's just speaking to them on their level

22:39and making sure that you're explaining things in a language that they're going to understand.

22:43You're in good hands, all right?

22:48Phone started to ring and it was the school's phone number,

22:50and I'm thinking, oh, no, what's happened?

22:53So when I answered the phone and they told me that she'd had an accident,

22:56every scenario is going through my head.

22:58How far has she fallen?

23:00What has she done to her legs?

23:01I just wanted to get there as quick as I could.

23:06Are you OK if I have a little look and see what's going on?

23:09Please don't help me.

23:11I won't move it at all, but I just want to have a look.

23:14Initially, I couldn't actually have a look at Izzy's leg at all.

23:17She wouldn't let me.

23:18She was very, very frightened and in a lot of pain, understandably.

23:22The pain was difficult to deal with

23:25because I was shaking, it was moving my knee.

23:27And you're... I know.

23:29Hey, I get it. Do you want to hold my hand?

23:30There you go, OK?

23:32You're in good hands.

23:34We do this all the time.

23:36Our priority is to build trust with Izzy to let us have a look.

23:42Entonox is laughing gas.

23:43You probably won't be laughing for me,

23:46but it'll definitely take the edge off the pain for you, OK?

23:49And it's totally fine.

23:50Oh, my God, it hurts me.

23:52It won't? Trust me.

23:53So this is literally just for, like, moving you

23:56and having a look at things, OK?

23:57No, it's going to move me. It's going to hurt.

23:59No, no.

23:59Not until it's well under control with the pain.

24:03All you have to do is just breathe it in, suck it like a straw.

24:06What you'll just notice is you might feel a little bit lightheaded.

24:09I'm quite feeling dizzy.

24:10You won't feel dizzy.

24:12It'll just feel a little bit woozy, but it'll take the pain away.

24:15Building trust with kids,

24:16especially whenever they're in an unfamiliar environment

24:18and possibly feeling the worst pain that they've ever felt before.

24:23Come on.

24:24You can do it.

24:26You can do it, Izzy.

24:28Go on.

24:28It's a bit of an uphill battle sometimes.

24:30Don't worry.

24:33Deep breath out.

24:34And another one.

24:35OK.

24:36So we've got some paracetamol.

24:38I'm really scared of the tablet.

24:40OK.

24:40It's a tablet that we can break in half, so it's really small.

24:44But it'll do a good job at taking care of your pain.

24:46All right?

24:47Yeah.

24:52I'm going to have a little feel just above and below.

24:55I'll be dead gentle, OK?

24:57Is that sore there?

24:59No?

25:00And how about up here?

25:02That's a little bit.

25:03You see?

25:04Ow!

25:04Keep breathing.

25:05Keep going.

25:07I don't think you've broken a bone above or below your knee, OK?

25:11So all it is at the minute is the little floaty bit of your kneecap.

25:15It's just slightly in the wrong position, OK?

25:19Steve needs to put Izzy's kneecap back in place,

25:22or it'll be much more difficult and painful to get it out of the gorge.

25:27Izzy, I'm going to have only one go at this, OK?

25:30And I will get you onto the stretcher and get you out of here.

25:34We're going to straighten out your leg a little bit, my love.

25:38Ow!

25:38OK, breathe in.

25:39Breathe in.

25:40Breathe in.

25:40Big deep breaths.

25:41Good go.

25:43You're doing a really good job.

25:45That's it, that's it, that's it.

25:50Izzy, that's it done.

25:51We're all done.

25:59That's good.

26:00See?

26:00Oh, there you go.

26:05You did an amazing job there.

26:07Really well done.

26:08That was phenomenal.

26:09When they put my knee back in, it was just pure relief.

26:15Can you wiggle this big too for me?

26:16Yay!

26:17Give me a wiggle.

26:18That's it.

26:19Well done.

26:20In my head, I thought I was stuck there because it was out of place.

26:23It was so painful.

26:24I didn't think anything was going to help.

26:26And as soon as they did it, I was so glad.

26:29Oh, Izzy, I'll tell you what.

26:30You're my best patient yet.

26:33Give me a little fist bump.

26:34Boom!

26:38It's important to think you're not just doing a job and then that's it, sort of finished.

26:43We've got you.

26:44Get ready, brace, lift.

26:46Nice and steady, guys.

26:48Well done, Izzy.

26:48Well done.

26:51A lot of the time, getting to the casualty seems like an adrenaline-filled part, but actually

26:55getting the casualty out of there and keeping them happy is a real important part of it.

27:01Go on, Izzy.

27:02Big puffs.

27:03Keep going.

27:04Nobody else is using that, so you might as well use it up.

27:07Well done, my love.

27:10Base.

27:10That's us en route to the car park.

27:12Over.

27:14You've always got this kind of background worry about your casualties.

27:19Have I done the right thing?

27:21Did I cut my leggings?

27:23Yeah, I had to, I'm afraid.

27:25You can blame me, okay?

27:26The first inkling that we had of that was Izzy's disgust, the fact that I'd ruined her new leggings.

27:33I'd just gotten them leggings and they were my favourite.

27:36Look who you fixed my nails.

27:39Hey, listen, I did you a favour.

27:40I did it up the seam so you can repair them if you really want to.

27:43Okay.

27:44It needed to be done, which I was okay with in the end.

27:48You ready?

27:49Okay.

27:49One, two, three.

27:51Up we go.

27:51It means a lot to me to know that she was in safe hands.

27:54Wee!

27:54And foot down again.

27:55Well done.

27:56How's that?

27:56Oh, so lovely we had.

27:58But you've had a lot of gas.

28:00You will be.

28:01I look after other people's children for work.

28:04Oh, look at them children like they're my own, so putting your trust into someone else just

28:10makes you so thankful.

28:14I think that kind of level of care almost comes naturally, but it's definitely compounded

28:19by the job that I do.

28:20You just think to yourself, if that was one of my loved ones in that position, you'd want

28:25them to be treated in the way that I would want to treat them personally.

28:29Well done.

28:57Well done.

28:58You
