In Tenby, Wales, three lifeboat people noticed a large group of people - 36 children and 4 adults - in increasing trouble on a sandbank. They went into action as the children and adults fell into the sea, took them all to safety from choppy and treacherous waters, and performed first aid on a couple of children. There was not a single victim, but it is estimated that without their quick intervention and competent action, at least six people would have died.
