RNLI Chairman visits Hayling Lifeboat Station

We were very pleased to welcome the RNLI Chairman, Charles Hunter-Pease, when on Monday 2 March he came to Hayling for a fundraising cluster meeting. He deliberately arrived early so that he could see the station and meet some of the crew as well as Siri Young, Fundraising Chairman on Hayling (pictured).

He proved to be very knowledgeable about the station and engaged in conversation with all he met, impressing us with his enthusiam and entertaining us with a fund of stories. He said it was ‘Inspiring to meet the crew,’ and praised them, writing in the Station Log that  ‘their commitment is appreciated by all,  (at the RNLI and in the wider public)’

We in turn appreciated him taking the time to extend his vist with us given the enormous task he has in overseeing the work of the RNLI.
