This morning, St. Stephen’s Day, helicopter Rescue 117 touched down at the Craanford GAA Club pitch to help transfer a patient to Beaumont Hospital in Dublin.
At 11.53am the Courtown/Arklow Coast Guard Unit were tasked to assist with a medical transfer where they secured and prepared the landing zone on the adjoining pitch in a multi-agency incident involving, Courtown/Arklow Coast Guard, the National Ambulance service and Rescue 117.
Remember if you see someone in difficulty on or near the water dial 112 or 999 and ask for the Coast Guard.
