RYA Youth Nationals: 16 April statement

We can confirm that an incident took place earlier today (16 April) around 1400 at the RYA Youth Nationals in Pwllheli.

Due to quick changing weather conditions a number of sailors were capsized into the water for a short period. All sailors are now safely ashore and being supported. One volunteer from the safety crew has been taken to hospital for further monitoring.

We would like to thank the quick support of the emergency services, RYA staff and volunteers for ensuring all sailors were recovered safely.
