Stevenson Highlights RNLI SOS Day

Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has highlighted the importance of RNLI SOS Day which takes place on Friday 25 January.

Commenting on the event, Mr Stevenson said:

“The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is a registered charity that saves lives at sea. It provides, on call, a 24/7 search and rescue service to anyone who gets in trouble up to 100 miles from the coasts of the UK and Ireland. The RNLI continues to rely on voluntary contributions and legacies for its income.

“Every day, 22 people are rescued by the RNLI's lifeboat crews. This service is only made possible because of the personal courage and commitment of the RNLI's brave volunteers. Rescue doesn't come cheap and it doesn't happen by accident and training can make the difference between life and death.

“I therefore urge schools, businesses, pubs, clubs and groups to participate in the day and show their support for the bravery and lifesaving work of the RNLI's volunteer crew members and lifeguards.

Banff & Buchan has a long and proud seafaring heritage and knows more than most places of the bravery of our local lifeboat crews, whose efforts are thoroughly deserving of our support.”
