Community effort helps avert tragedy as six people rescued after inflatable airbed drifts out to sea

Fethard RNLI rescued six people yesterday evening after two young girls drifted out to sea on an inflatable airbed.

The volunteer lifeboat crew were called out at 8.31pm last night after two women raised the alarm to say they could see a lilo with two girls drifting out to sea off Duncannon Beach.
