Poole Lifeboat Station to host virtual lifeboat week

POOLE Lifeboat Station will host a virtual lifeboat week, in a bid to make up for lost donations due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Donation boxes around Poole have been removed and the museum and shop, which usually welcomes 22,000 a year, has been closed meaning a lot of funds have been lost,

Therefore, the station will host a virtual lifeboat week between July 27 and August 2.

There will be a virtual dog show, station tour, sea safety videos, a ‘knot challenge’ and quizzes among other activities.
