Warnings go unheeded

 



Despite recent warnings , today’s patrol yet again found people taking unnecessary risks at Old Harry.

The bridge is now starting to deteriorate even further with the footfall but still people are walking this narrow ridge putting themselves and others at risk. 

Several people were asked to come back whilst trying to take photos. The patrol spent time explaining the dangers to those around. 

Later in the evening the team were tasked to Middle Beach to a report of two swimmers missing . Both Swanage RNLI lifeboats were launching but as the Coastguard team arrived at Studland a further call was received to say the swimmers had turned up safe and well. All assets were stood down. 

Having been stood down from the Studland incident the team were aware of a medical incident on the sea front and attended assisting the ambulance service.
