Rescue mission
This is the moment an injured climber was rescued from a cliff in Dorset.
The multi-agency rescue on Friday afternoon involved volunteers from Swanage Coastguard, the RNLI, St Albans Coastguard and Kimmeridge Coastguard.
Volunteers lowered Polly down the cliff to the lifeboat crew and a waiting stretcher.
She was then transferred by the inshore lifeboat to the all-weather lifeboat where she was taken on to the slipway in Swanage where Dorset and Somerset Air Ambulance and South Western Ambulance Service were waiting.
A spokesperson for Swanage Coastguard said: "We're pleased to report that Polly is on the mend from her broken ankle and we wish her a speedy recovery."
