On Bank Holiday Sunday, hundreds of visitors flocked to Milford on Sea Beach to watch the annual combined RNLI Search & Rescue Exercise with The Needles as a backdrop. (Royal National Lifeboat Institute.)
Children and adults alike were thrilled as the lifeboats went about a number of mock rescues, and the helicopter hovered, whilst the whinchman descended and then took his 'patient' back up to safety.
The exercise involved inshore lifeboats from Mudeford and Lymington, together with the Yarmouth boat and the Coastguard helicopter.
Milford on Sea's active and enthusiastic fundraising team were again in action, and the appreciative crowd generously contributed to the collection buckets. An impressive £1065 was raised, and when combined with souvenir sales of £673, it means a large cheque is on its way to RNLI headquarters at Poole.
If you are interested in joining the RNLI Milford on Sea Branch, and getting involved with a fun group of people, enjoying a variety of events, whilst at the same time raising some cash of a worthy cause, please drop me an e-mail at: david@milfordonsea.org, and I will pass it on.
