Roy Hopgood and Ben Callaway at work on the notorious cliffs of Beachy head

This is the rescue that won them the life saver of the year award, for the rescue of a student who fell 150 feet down the 554 foot cliffs, she was lucky to land on a fridge which stopped her falling further.
 

The casualty sustained multiple injuries, including two broken wrists & her back broken in three places. Roy & Ben were able to safely immobilise her & bring her up the cliff. You will be glad to know she has made a tremendous recovery.
