July has gifted us with beautiful weather, and our stunning coastline is alive with the buzz of locals and tourists enjoying everything this wonderful area has to offer.
Our crew has been hard at work throughout the month — participating in joint training exercises, carrying out essential maintenance, responding to callouts, and continuing preparations for our Annual Lifeboat Day on 10th August.
If you’re able to support us on the day, we’d love to hear from you! Your help makes a real difference, and it’s always a pleasure to connect with members of our amazing community.
🚨 Joint Exercise with Bacton Coastguard Rescue Team
Our teams recently joined forces for a valuable training session. The exercise began with our crew providing safety cover as the Coastguard team practiced water entry techniques. This was followed by a coordinated rescue scenario, with both teams working together to recover a casualty and safely return them to shore.
🛟 Recent Shout – Paddleboarder Rescue near Waxham
Our Inshore Lifeboat (ILB) was tasked by Humber Coastguard to assist a paddleboarder who had been blown offshore near Waxham. The crew launched swiftly and successfully brought the paddleboarder to safety.
As always, thank you for your continued support — whether it’s attending Lifeboat Day, helping us behind the scenes, or simply spreading the word about water safety. We couldn’t do it without you!
Stay safe and enjoy the summer,
The Lifeboat Crew
