Numbers come up for Hunstanton RNLI at village bingo
Number 10, Rishi's Den. Thirty-three - saves lives at sea.
Players at Holme-next-the-Sea, near Hunstanton, raised more than £150 for Hunstanton RNLI from an eyes-down at the village hall on 4 May.
Around 30 players took part in the event, which was organised by Kate Maguire, Heidi Field, Sue Ryan and Ann Haigh, from the Holme Social Group.
'We're just four girls from the village, who wanted to arrange more socials to get the community together,' said Kate.
'We know the RNLI is important to the village, so we wanted to support them in their 200th anniversary year.'
Proceeds from the bingo night will help fund the work of Hunstanton RNLI, which like more than 200 lifeboat stations around the coast of the UK and Ireland depends on the kindness of its supporters to fund its lifesaving work.
Today Hunstanton RNLI operates a fast inshore lifeboat, Spirit of West Norfolk and is one of just four to also operate a search and rescue hovercraft, Hunstanton Flyer.
