Sunday Training – plus SHOUT!
Well that was a busy morning, and one which really proved the importance of our rescue crew training to be ready for anything …
It started off as a usual Sunday morning, with our volunteers at the boathouse for training exercises. Both the John Pulfer and Pett Tornado boats were busy doing comprehensive training, involving lots of different scenarios!
These scenarios involve all of our rescue crew training for all aspects of our work, including beach crews and base crews.
All our volunteers are committed to always being ready for any situation at any time. And today, whilst the teams were all in the right place at the right time …
TASKED TO ASSIST
Our volunteers were asked to assist RNLI Hastings in the search for a missing person. The person was believed to be missing between our local Cliff End area and Hastings.
With the morning’s training having just ended when the call came through to us, our teams were rescue ready and able to assist immediately. After an extensive search no-one was found. Our crews were then stood down by Solent Coastguard and returned back to base for the busy task of leaving the boats and the boat house rescue ready for the next call to assist.
Congratulations and well done to our teams today for their hard work and dedication to their volunteer roles.
IT COSTS MORE THAN £10k A YEAR TO KEEP OUR RESCUE BOAT CHARITY AFLOAT
