Police and HM Coastguard rushed to Culver Down this afternoon (Thursday) following a report of concern for welfare.
Coastguard Rescue Helicopter 175 was scrambled from Lee-On-Solent, and Bembridge RNLI launched both its lifeboats. Fortunately, the additional resources were not needed as the individual, a female, was located by Police shortly before 16:30. Consequently, both Helicopter 175 and Bembridge RNLI stood down after around 10 minutes on the scene.
WightSAR was also tasked but stood down en route.
The police escorted the woman away from the cliff edge, taking her to a nearby Police van for her safety.
