Ryde Inshore Rescue is thrilled to announce that over £1000 was taken at their open weekend at Appley.
The combination of good weather and the event being free brought hundreds of families and couples to the lifeboat station where they got a chance to dress up and experience life as a crew member.
Many spent time talking to volunteers of the club, learning the important role that is carried out, whilst others chose to tour the station seeing what facilities were available.
There were several competitions that were run over the 3 days including treasure hunt, tombola and raffle, but the main event was a large undercover bouncy castle which was enjoyed by children and adults alike!
