Last week some of our volunteer crew refreshed their casualty care training alongside volunteers from Littlestone and Hastings at Littlestone Lifeboat Station.

It was a great success with 17 people completing the course and shows what great collaboration we have with our flanking stations along the coast.

17 volunteers from Channel coast RNLI stations have now successfully completed the RNLI’s intensive Casualty Care Course, delivered in two groups across last week and this week. This training equips crew members with vital skills to support their lifesaving work at sea.

This evening saw our volunteer crew complete two launch and recoveries in order for some of our shore crew to be assessed on their Shore Crew plans.

A huge thank you to Sandgate Parish Council for the incredible donation as a result of the Sandgate Sea Festival! 💙🧡

It was a pleasure to present a cheque for £1.024.22 to Vicky and Julie from the Dungeness RNLI Lifeboat Station at our Council meeting on Monday.

We were also delighted to hear from them on the work of the RNLI at Dungeness and the volunteers that turn out for calls 24 hours a day in all weathers. Incredible commitment.

The money was raised at this year's Sandgate Sea Festival from the "Barrow of Booze" which was led by Charlotte and the Bliss family, who joined us at the presentation. Thank you to everyone that bought a ticket, and the Bliss family for selling them!
