BBC News - Seven children rescued in three beach alerts in west Wales

BBC News - Seven children rescued in three beach alerts in west Wales: "Meanwhile, at Pendine in Carmarthenshire, two 14-year-old teenage girls from Abergavenny got into difficulty while swimming and the tide took them out to Gilman Point.

Milford Haven coastguard said they became panicked and went onto some rocks and called for help.


The father of one of the girls went to their aid bringing them back along the rocks to safety causing them to suffer cuts and bruises.

Ambulance paramedics checked them over and due to their ages and ambulance protocols they had to be taken to Glangwili hospital, Carmarthen, for treatment.

Coastguards received several 999 calls for the incident and rescue teams from Tenby and Manorbier were alerted."
