Callout:
Just after 7.00pm this evening we were called by Dyfed Powys Police to rescue a 12 year old male who’d fallen and injured his leg whilst walking with his family at Scwd Yr Eira waterfall, in the Ystradfellte gorge area.
We quickly accessed the site and established contact with the young man and his family, enlisting support from members of Western Beacons Mountain Search and Rescue Team and Brecon Mountain Rescue Team we carried him out of the gorge on our stretcher. From the top of the gorge he was airlifted to hospital by Maritime and Coastguard Agency helicopter from St Athan,
Our very best wishes to the young man for a speedy recovery.
Our 58th call for help so far in 2017.
