We're sharing a few photographs taken during last night's training exercise, where our RNLI volunteer crew practised with flares. A beautiful evening to train! These great images were taken by our crewman and ILB helm Siôn 👏⚓️ #RNLI

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 #volunteers #SavingLivesAtSea

Our annual crew barbecue ended abruptly yesterday when the pagers went off! A vessel with 4 on board stuck on rocks. Both RNLI lifeboats were launch, and the casualties were brought safely to shore ⚓️ (Video clip of us launching in previous )

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. 📷 Library pic #RNLI

Here we are back in June, with colleagues RNLI TREARDDUR BAY 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.
