Flamborough RNLI’s heartfelt thanks after family donation
Flamborough RNLI members have thanked a family after it presented a cheque to the lifeboat team.
The team said it was incredibly grateful to receive a very generous donation in memory of Kenneth (Ken) Hinchliffe.
A spokesperson said: “Ken spent most weekends and annual holidays in Flamborough over the past 60 years, and during that time the village became a very special place close to his heart.
“Following Ken’s recent passing, his wishes were for a quiet funeral with no flowers, but instead for a collection to be made for Flamborough Lifeboat.
“We are deeply honoured that his family chose to support our volunteer crew and station in his memory.
“We send our sincere condolences to all of Ken’s family and friends. We hope they can take comfort in knowing that his memory will now help support the lifeboat and our volunteers who continue to be there for those in need at sea.
“Thank you, Ken, and thank you to all the Hinchliffe family.”
