Do you live in Mytholmroyd ? Or were visiting in October? A long shot

On 30 October a friend of my brother's, visiting Yorkshire for half term, crashed his bike into a wall on Mytholmroyd steps (pedal bike) and was very badly injured. An "older couple" called 999 and stayed with him until he was airlifted to Leeds. He still hasn't made it home, but is out of hospital and is recovering with his MIL in West Yorks.

He'd really like to find the couple who called the air ambulance and stayed with him, keeping him warm, alive a=and alert. He has spoken to the emergency services, but they don't have the details of who called in the 999 call.

I don't suppose anyone knows who this couple were? .

He is also contacting all the local community FB pages in Yorkshire he can find, and cycling forums.

Thanks

Bump for you ☺

Thanks HoppingGreen. It’s been rather odd seeing this on local social media. He lives several hundred miles away!!

Bumping for you and just to let you know that this has popped up on my FB, shared by a local bike shop (south Leeds).

I will also share it myself as I know a few people who live out that way.

Did the local newspaper cover it? They may have contact details or could put out an appeal.
