A climber was rescued on Friday afternoon from the cliffs at Anvil Point.
The climber was approximately 10 feet down the cliff when an incident resulted in a severe leg injury. Coastguards from Swanage , St Albans and Kimmeridge along with the RNLI lifeboats from Swanage attended.
A Coastguard Rescue Officer descended the cliff and provided immediate casualty care before transferring the climber onto the rope rescue system and being lowered down together to the lower ledge and lifeboat crew .
The lifeboat brought the female casualty back to Swanage to be met by ambulance crews including from the Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance which had landed at Prince Albert Gardens.
