VOLUNTEERS from Llantwit major Coastguard were paged late on Saturday, 31st July, to support Porthcawl Coastguard and Welsh Ambulance Service/HART paramedics with a medical evacuation on Porthcawl sea front.
A man had fallen from a small cliff ledge and sustained multiple injuries.
The casualty was assessed by paramedics and, with spinal injuries suspected, packaged into a stretcher. The Coastguard used rope equipment to take him up the rock ledge to be transferred to hospital by ambulance.
A Llantwit Coastguard spokesperson said: “It was a great multi agency team effort.
“We wish the casualty all the best with his recovery.”
