Well worth a visit to The Lizard Lifeboat with some very knowledgeable people on hand to give us some lowdown on the station. Sounds like they’ve been very busy over the years with some fascinating history just like ours WHITBY RNLI RNLI Whitby Museum.

A visit ⁦⁦WHITBY RNLI⁩

OTD 1934 Princess Mary christened Runswick Bays Lifeboat the RNLB Robert Patton - The Always Ready. Originally the boat was going to be called 'The Always Ready' but the name was changed in honour of Runswick's Coxswain Robert Patton who give his life in a rescue in February 1934

This week the crew were called out when an EPIRB was triggered in Whitby rnli.org/news-and-media…

OTD 1964 the MV Queensgate ran ashore in fog at 0400hrs at Happy Valley, 1 mile west of Whitby. Whitby Lifeboat, RNLB Mary-Ann Hepworth was launched to assist the vessel. The Queensgate was successfully refloated the following day with the Lifeboat standing by.

Two volunteer crew members have passed their assessments to become qualified mechanics on the all weather lifeboat last week. Well done Adam & Matt! 👏🏻

We are all set up Salford Quays for the RNLI coast to cobbles event.

We would like to wish all of our followers, supporters, fundraisers and volunteers a very Happy Christmas. Thank you for all of your support in 2024 as we celebrated 200 years of the RNLI saving lives at sea.

We still have a handful of 2025 charity calendars available. All proceeds go to the RNLI. They are available at Whitby RNLI lifeboat museum or you can order for delivery by emailing Neil at [email protected]

This week we welcomed back our former coxswain Mike Russell to present a very special award. Helen has been fundraising for Whitby RNLI for 30 years as part of the Friends of Whitby Lifeboat and we were delighted to present her with her long service medal. Thank you Helen

On International Woman's Day, we remember the Runswick Bay ladies who on 13th March 1940 launched the Runswick Bay Lifeboat the 'RNLB Robert Patton, the Always Ready' so the boat could escort their husband's fishing boats home from the fishing grounds, as the weather deteriorated
