Two people had to be rescued after sustaining injuries on the Jurassic Coast.

The incidents happened on Sunday afternoon at Durdle Door.

Lulworth Coastguard Rescue Team was called after a woman suffered an ankle injury.

A coastguard spokesman said: “The team along with Kimmeridge Coastguard were tasked to Durdle Door this afternoon to assist South West Ambulance Service with a female with an ankle injury.

“On arrival the team found the casualty with the Lulworth first responders.

“However, there were reports on scene that there was now a second casualty with another lower limb injury some 30m further down the track.

“Shortly after locating the second casualty paramedics arrived.

“It was decided that the safest form of extraction would be via a 4x4 to take the casualties to the top of the track and then into the land ambulance.

“With both casualties in the care of the ambulance, both teams were stood down and returned to their stations.”
