Oh crikey - the 14 year old at Ranworth must have either been local, or not there by boat if the family where able to take her to hospital themselves as reported.
I assume, by way of the coastguard being involved, that the girl somehow was injured , or fell, in the water? Presumably if the incident/accident was on dry land then only the ambulance service would be needed. If local I suppose they may have been on a boat but had transport close by. Broken ankle - ouch. Poor lass.
