Tenby RNLI along with fellow rescue services helped locate a missing person around the locality, with the Coastguard rescue helicopter eventually spotting the male on Giltar Point.

Both of Tenby's lifeboats - the all-weather Haydn Miller and the inshore vessel the Kathleen Ann were requested to launch just after 7 pm on Sunday, September 15, following a request from Dyfed Powys Police for assistance in the search for a missing person, who officers believed was possibly in the vicinity of Giltar Point.

The volunteer lifeboat crews were quickly on the water and began searching from South Beach up around Giltar Point and towards Lydstep using search lights along with both night vision and heat seeking equipment.

Members of the local Coastguard team along with Police officers searched ashore.

They were soon joined by a Coastguard rescue helicopter.

Despite fading light and poor visibility, the helicopter managed to locate the casualty up on Giltar Point, and he was taken aboard the aircraft and dropped down onto Penally range, where he was met by ambulance crews and taken to hospital to be checked over.

The lifeboats were then stood down and returned to station, arriving at 9.40 pm.
