Visit to Scarborough Lifeboat Station 24 April 2024
20 Rotary members were introduced to the voluntary members of the RNLI who gave up their time to explain the ins and out of running the life saving service carried out by the crews on a daily basis. They were all very knowledgeable and answered all questions from members without hesitation. After the Q&A session we were split into to two groups whilst the staff allowed us to inspect the equipment used, safety requirements and of course the Lifeboat and inshore dirigible.
A very interesting event enjoyed by all, later we adjourned to the Golden Grid for a fish supper and refreshments.
Our thanks to John Porter and the volunteers for their freely given time.
