Lifeboat collection boxes raise £3600 for the RNLI in Troon
Troon RNLI lifeboat station's collection box secretary maintains and empties the collection boxes in Troon and the surrounding area, helping to raise thousands of pounds every year for the RNLI.
We are always pleased to hear about new locations willing to take a collection box to support the RNLI in Troon. Boxes can be supplied to shops, pubs, restaurants, bars, hotels, B&Bs - in fact anywhere where customers may be willing and able to donate a bit of loose change to help save lives at sea.
If you can help, or if you already have a box and it needs emptying or replacing, please contact the lifeboat station via 01292314414 or email [email protected] with your name, location and a contact number, and we will be in touch.
