Last #FathersDay our @DonaghadeeRNLI crew launched to rescue a kayaker being swept out to sea. We'd like to thank all our crews who will be ready to answer the call to rescue this Father’s Day, just like any other day. Watch the full rescue. πŸ‘‡ #RNLI

Inflatables in the sea? What a fowl idea! πŸ¦† @AppledoreRNLI have urged people to never take an inflatable toys into the sea after three people drifted out into the Bristol Channel from a beach in Devon on an inflatable duck!. #RNLI #Lifeboats #RespectTheWater

Thrilled to host Poppy for afternoon tea as she endured a 'Dip a Day' in April to raise money for the @RNLI via sea swimming. A real credit to her lovely family. I am so proud of you Poppy! A future Mayor? watch this space 😍 #inspirational #MakingADifference @ANDborough

Rip currents can quickly drag you into deeper water. To escape a rip, swim or paddle parallel to the shore, not against the current. Or #FloatToLive until help arrives. If you see someone in trouble in the water, call 999 or 112 and ask for the Coastguard. #RipCurrents

Frankie thought she was going to die, then she saw @RNLIPenarth's 'famous orange boat' coming towards her. Help us save people like Frankie by doing the #MaydayMile. Sign-up to go a mile a day in May. πŸ‘‡ https://t.co/kYsR4MOilB #RNLI #CharityMiles #CharityChallenge

Anyone catch @DonaghadeeRNLI coxswain, Philip McNamara, on @BBC's #GreatBritishMenu? Local chef John Hollywood had a chance to try on some of the lifesaving kit that our volunteer crew wear, and get a look at our lifeboat in preparation for this episode. #RNLI #OneCrew

Thinking of heading for a walk along the coast? While coastal walking is a safe activity most of the time, slips and falls can happen. Before your next walk along the coast, follow & share our tips to stay safe. πŸ“·: Gerallt Jones #Coast #CoastalWalking #CoastalPath

Further crew gave up their Thursday evening and their Friday morning to also complete the training. We are delighted to have a lifeboat back in the harbour and to be back on service and ready for callout if and when we are required. 2/3
