Oldham Mountain Rescue Team joined local people for the annual Remembrance Sunday service at the Pots and Pans war memorial site in Saddleworth before being alerted to an incident.
As the team made their way down the hill, they were called to help a woman who had become dizzy.
One of the medics assessed her and decided it would be best for her to be carried off the hill. The lady was placed inside a warm fleece lined bag and onto a stretcher before being carried down the hill to one of the rescue team's vehicles. After a short drive, the volunteers were met by a crew from North West Ambulance Service for further checks.
The Oldham Mountain Rescue Team is encouraging local people to make a donation to help replace their ageing Land Rovers, which are vital to getting their team and equipment into places other vehicles simply can't reach.
