Behind the Scenes at Weymouth Lifeboat Station When someone is in trouble at sea, we often picture the RNLI Weymouth lifeboat powering through the waves, with volunteer crew members braving the elements to save lives. What we rarely see is the crucial decision made on shore that makes every lifeboat launch possible. At Weymouth Lifeboat Station, that responsibility lies with the Volunteer Launch Authority (LA), a trained RNLI volunteer working calmly behind the scenes. This land based role plays

We caught a glimpse of the lifeboat crew training at the lifeboat house, and it’s always impressive to watch the skill, teamwork and dedication that goes on behind the scenes 🚤 These training sessions are a reminder of the commitment and hard work that keeps our coastline safe all year round. Scarborough is incredibly lucky to have such a dedicated crew looking out for locals and visitors alike. Huge respect and thanks to everyone involved 👏 #RNLI #ScarboroughLifeboat #LifeboatCrew #CoastalLif

The RNLI lifeboat launching at St David’s earlier today. This was a scheduled training launch, not an emergency — thankfully no one in trouble out on the water. A reminder of the work that goes on behind the scenes, so help is there when it’s really needed. #RNLI #StDavids #PembrokeshireCoast #LifeboatLaunch #VolunteerCrew #SeaSafety #CoastalUK | Large Outdoors
