Seahouses lifeboat crew come to Santa’s aid to visit Seahouses First School!
Seahouses inshore lifeboat crew responded to Santa’s call for assistance today (Friday 22 December) to deliver presents to Seahouses First School.
Santa came to Seahouses Lifeboat Station, and requested assistance to deliver presents to Seahouses First School. The presents were donated by the lifeboat crew themselves.
Santa got a fantastic welcome, and the kids seemed to really be excited by his visit.
Seahouses RNLI crew member and Water Safety Volunteer Lynsey Carr added: 'It is our crew’s way of showing our gratitude to the community, who support us in our role of saving lives at sea. We also get the chance to promote our safety messages among the younger members of the community.'
