Porthcawl RNLI’s volunteer crew were tasked by HM Coastguard to assist paddleboaders in difficulty at Ogmore following a request by RNLI lifeguard colleagues at Ogmore. This tasking came immediately after Launch 81/26 – 📟 2.26pm. Once on scene the crew picked up two casualties and their boards and returned them to shore at Ogmore beach.

📞 In a coastal emergency dial 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard.
