The station will be hosting an Open Day on 14 June 2024 from 10.00am to 4.00pm at Scarborough RNLI Lifeboat Station.
For many years, Scarborough lifeboat station has welcomed the public to the station for a day to celebrate their open day formerly known as flag day.
During these times the station at Foreshore Road will be open to the public and people can meet the volunteer crew and visits team and have a tour around the station, boats and equipment.
The team will also have their water safety team and swim safe team available for advice and the Lifeboat Guild will be running a raffle and tombola.
There will be several activities for adults and children, refreshments, a cake stall, and book stall, the lifeboat shop will also be open. The team is hoping that people will join in and support the local crew and help to save lives at sea.
Adam Sheader, RNLI Scarborough inshore lifeboat Helm said:
'We are thrilled to bring back our Flag Day celebration this year. It's a fantastic opportunity to connect with both visitors and locals while raising essential funds for our station. The RNLI Scarborough team is eager to showcase our work and engage with our supportive community during this special event.
‘Flag Day is a key annual community event that supports the lifeboat station's lifesaving work. All proceeds from the day will contribute to maintaining the vital search and rescue service and ensuring the safety of coastal communities.
‘Entrance to Flag Day 2025 is free and no registration is required, for boat and station tours we have a suggested donation of £2.'
