This website has been designed to give as much information as possible and be as up to date as it possibly can be. It is maintained by volunteer crew members so please bear with us!
Do you think you'd be interested in joining the crew? Or as a launcher? Why not come to the station and speak to Steve or James for more information, or email by clicking here

Keep in touch with Text Alerts!
RNLI supporters in the UK can now stay connected with lifeboat launches on their mobile phones.
Choose your favourite stations and receive an SMS message when the lifeboat is launched on emergency service.
You choose how much you’d like to pay for each message received. A portion of the fee will come to the RNLI, so not only are you kept in the know, you are also contributing to the real cost of the lifeboat launch. The amount donated depends on your mobile operator.
Our SMS alerts are triggered by the crew pager system, so when they get the call, you do too. However, unlike our volunteer crews, you can choose what time of day you’d like to receive alerts and set a limit on how many messages you receive. You can also pause the service for a while, for example if you’re going abroad on holiday. Sign up by clicking below:
