Just like the lifeboat, the shop needs a dedicated volunteer crew – people of all ages and abilities – willing to give a little time to help save lives at sea.
Volunteers will be able to meet new people, join a motivated and enthusiastic team, learn new skills, and gain experience to enhance their CV.
The RNLI is loooking to attract enthusiastic people who are confident handling money and comfortable volunteering in a customer service environment.
Any person interested will be given the correct training ahead of joining the team.
