  2. Community Strength at Stromness #RNLI200

    It was a Sunday afternoon filled with pipes and drums resonating around the town of Stromness. What marked 5th May 2024 as special, however, was the outpouring of community love and support for the RNLI. The RNLI launched its first lifeboat in 1824 and since then the charity, run by volunteers, has saved more than 146,000 lives at sea. "24 hours a day, 7 days a week, the RNLI is ready to save lives."
