Climber airlifted to hospital

 The Swanage and St Albans Coastguard teams were tasked this afternoon to the western mile markers to a climber with a dislocated knee. 

The climber who had been climbing in the amphitheater area had been recovered to a ledge until the emergency services arrived. 

The Coastguard teams set up for a rope rescue but were hampered by thick undergrowth.  The air ambulance attended but with Rescue 175 on route departed to another incident. 

The Coaatguard helicopter arrived and lowered the winchman to the ledge providing medical treatment before airlifting the male to Poole.
