Person trapped on cliffs in Rush

This morning at 10.25 the Coast Guard was alerted to a person that had become trapped on mid cliff in Rush.

Skerries Coast Guard and RNLI lifeboat were tasked alongside Howth Coast Guard as the cliff rescue team for Dublin.

A Rescue climber from Howth descended the cliff using specialised equipment and secured the person who was then lifted to the cliff top.

When this person got into difficulties they did exactly the right thing.

They didn’t move and awaited help to arrive.

If you see someone in difficulty on the cliffs, coast or water, never hesitate. Dial 999 or 112 and ask for the Coast Guard.
