Holidaymakers are warned to take care on East Yorkshire & northern Lincolnshire's coastal resorts this summer.

The RNLI says this is their busiest time of the year for incidents and last summer in the north of England crews responded to more than 300 emergencies.

The warning comes as a man has been rescued after drifting a mile out to sea from Redcar in a toy dinghy.

Grantham's A&E looks set to remain closed overnight for at least a further three months.

United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust, which runs Lincolnshire's main hospitals, is recommending the decision is reviewed again in three months time.

The overnight closure at Grantham was brought in a year ago because of staff shortages across the trust.

It comes as managers admit they are also struggling to provide a full service at Lincoln's main A&E because there are not enough doctors.
