Another outstanding year for Bude Lifeboat Weekend
It seems ages since the busy Bank Holiday weekend in August but we now have the final figures for the amount raised from this year’s Bude RNLI Lifeboat weekend.
We would like to thank all those who contributed to the weekend, including all the local individuals and businesses that provided sponsorship and donated money/prizes – we could not run Lifeboat Weekend without your support.
Planning for Bude RNLI Lifeboat Weekend 2024 starts in January and we are aiming for a bumper year as we celebrate 200 years of the RNLI.
If you are able to offer any help to make 2024 a record year please contact [email protected]
In the meantime we hope to see you at the lifeboat station on 2nd December 2023 when Santa will be paying a visit!
