A 10-year-old girl was spotted paddling 150 metres off the coast of an Anglesey beach without a life jacket on. RNLI volunteers found the young child on a "boogie board", by chance.
North Wales Live reports that concerned beachgoers were also heading out to help. But her parents were said to be "oblivious to it all", said the RNLI. In a statement on Facebook, RNLI's Moelfre crew said the incident unfolded after they had been called to other incidents nearby. For the latest news, subscribe to our newsletter here.
The crew said: "Twice [on Friday], the volunteers were tasked to launch the Inshore lifeboat 'Enfys 2' due to incidents that involved paddleboards and a kayak. The first launch request came at 10.31am after two paddleboarders appeared to struggle in the strong offshore wind.
