A 17-year-old county Wicklow Leaving Cert student has told of how he assisted in the rescue of a woman who got into difficulty while swimming in the sea off Greystones on Wednesday.

Conor Power, who is from Roundwood, had been on Greystones beach with the intention of completing a physical education project, but conditions were too rough so it was cancelled by his teacher.
