Here we are back in June, with colleagues @RNLITREARDDUR rescuing climber Jon. This was a long, complicated rescue due to the difficult location and his injuries, but all was well in the end and he was safely airlifted to hospital.
Watch as @HheadLifeboat and @RNLITrearddur rescue a climber who fell 12m near Gogarth Bay. With help from @HMCoastguard and local cliff rescue teams, our crews provided vital care and facilitated a safe transfer to hospital by helicopter. Well done to everyone involved π

Our ILB crew were called out just after 2am to assist a vessel struggling to moor in the very high winds. The 3 people on board were exhausted but physically well. We assisted them onto a secure mooring before returning to station. π· Library pic #RNLI

Brilliant rescue!
'All I kept saying was, Iβm sorry Ringo.' πΆπ Carl and Ringo were cut off by the rapidly rising tide. Carl made a lifesaving call to the coastguard. Always check tide times and carry a means of calling for help. If in difficulty, dial 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard.

It was very emotional witnessing such a unique scene - there were tears from the public and members of the crew too! A fitting way to commemorate 200 years of #SavingLivesAtSea - a once-in-a-lifetime experience that we feel privileged to be a part of. Diolch yn fawr! πβοΈπ§‘π

Thank you to every single person who came along to Moelfre today to see our special lifeboat convoy to commemorate #RNLI200 βοΈ The rain didn't take away from the magnificent sight of 7 different classes of lifeboat all in one place. It was very special to be part of it all. 1/

You may recall we, along with @RNLITrearddur rescued an injured climber earlier this month. We're now able to share some footage of that night. Happy to report that Jon is recovering at home & we're hoping to catch up with him again soon! #RNLI
