First job of the year for @PTLifeboat , quite a big swell out there, so after two and a half hours on the ILB u could say my legs are killing. Wouldn’t change it for the world tho #savinglivesatsea #RNLI

Tomorrow we celebrate the 250th birthday of our founder, Sir William Hillary. In 1823 Sir William made an impassioned appeal to the nation, calling for a service dedicated to saving lives at sea. 196 years later our volunteers are busier than ever protecting our coast.

Today we’re celebrating 18 years of operating lifesaving services on the River Thames - please join us in thanking @ChiswickRNLI, @GravesendRNLI , @rnli_teddington & @TowerRNLI for keeping us safe, responding to emergencies 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year 👏
