A large emergency services response was mounted at Rhos-on-Sea on Saturday evening (November 7) following an incident near the town's jetty.

North Wales Police vehicles attended the scene, alongside members of Llandudno Coastguard Rescue Team and Llandudno RNLI.

Conwy's lifeboat was subsequently tasked to launch at around 6pm to provide support to North Wales Police and the Welsh Ambulance Service, which was also dealing with the incident.

Three volunteer crew members were on board the lifeboat, which remained at the scene while emergency services worked to bring the situation under control.

North Wales Police confirmed that officers were responding to an incident involving a concern for someone's safety.

Once the ambulance team had the situation in hand, Conwy RNLI was stood down and the lifeboat returned to station, where it was made ready for further service.

The RNLI thanked its volunteers who responded, both afloat and ashore, as well as its emergency service colleagues.

No further details about the circumstances of the incident have been released.

The RNLI reminds members of the public that anyone who sees a person in distress or difficulty along the coastline should call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
