Last
Thursday, Launceston Young Farmers had an extremely interesting visit to Looe
Lifeboat Station. Three volunteers from the RNLI gave the club a tour of the new boathouse (situated on the east side
of the river) and showed members a video to highlight some of the
important aspects of history within the RNLI. The video also allowed the club
to gain a clear understanding of the courageous work that the search and rescue
men and women do.
Members
were given the opportunity to climb into the lifeboats and explore the
extensive technology that is used as an integral part of their work, saving the
lives of people at sea.
The evening
allowed the club to see the vital importance of the Royal National Lifeboat
Institution, with the bravery and
expertise of the workers resulting in a large number of lives being saved every
year.
