A busy weekend for Trearddur Bay RNLI volunteers.
Trearddur bay Lifeboat was tasked to assist three different vessels over the weekend, two near Porth Dafarch and one near the popular beauty spot Church in the sea, each reporting engine problems.
Later that afternoon reports came in to the coastguard of a boat that had broken down near church in the sea and the volunteers were tasked to recover a Maxim 16ft speedboat.
All three boats were towed back to Trearddur Bay by the Charities Atlantic 85 ‘Hereford Endeavour’.
On Sunday the RNLI station was visited by Beth Wickes who is walking around the coast of the UK as a fundraiser for the RNLI.
Having just completed her degree course Beth started her journey on the 3rd of October 2018 from Tower Lifeboat Station in London and is making her way north over the summer. You can find out more information about her incredible journey at www.bethfootforward.co.uk.
