Dart RNLI seeks new crew recruits

Lifeboats News Release

Dart RNLI is looking for new crew to help in their mission of saving lives at sea.

The Dartmouth-based station has the capacity to take on two new volunteers to crew their two lifeboats.
Dart RNLI recently relocated to a new modern station and can now train the successful candidates to qualify as volunteers for rescue missions.
Helm Rich Eggleton said: 'It's a great team to be a part of, with volunteers from all walks of life in the Dartmouth community, and a brand new lifeboat station with brilliant facilities.
'Volunteering for the RNLI has so many benefits.'
Candidates need to live or work close to the station by the Higher Ferry, and be passionate about the RNLI cause. Full training will be undertaken by the recruits.
