A kayaker suffered a suspected dislocated shoulder after a capsize off Dancing Ledge

A kayaker has been rescued off Dorset's Jurassic Coast after suffering a shoulder injury while at sea with a group.

Both Swanage lifeboats were sent to the kayaker near Dancing Ledge, Langton Matravers, on Monday shortly before 15:20 BST.

Crews said they found the kayaker with a suspected dislocated shoulder following a capsize the RNLI said.

They were lifted into the lifeboat and taken to a waiting ambulance.

The remaining kayakers "were all fine so they were left to return to Swanage under their own power," the RNLI added.
