19 July: St Davids, Wales A coasteering trip nearly ended in disaster when a 12-year-old girl seriously injured her neck near Porthclais Harbour. The inshore lifeboat crew arrived on scene at noon and gave first aid. Because of the severity of her injuries, they called for an RAF rescue helicopter to airlift her to hospital. The crew continued to treat the girl while they waited for the helicopter to arrive, and helped to place the girl in a stretcher. Once she was safely evacuated, they returned to the lifeboat station.
