The R N L I welcomes new recruits, if you wish to volunteer, or donate, please contact the R N L I Lifeboat station based on Rhyl's promenade.

Places to see in ( Moelfre - UK )
Moelfre is a village, community and electoral ward on the north east coast of Isle of Anglesey in Wales, and on the Anglesey Coastal Path. It has a population of 1,064 as of the 2011 UK census. The meaning of the Welsh language word Moelfre translated in English is 'bald or barren hill', which describes the land behind the village, as seen from the sea. It is the same name as that of the Malvern Hills in Worcestershire and Herefordshire. The village today has 502 households and 5% unemployment. The Royal Mail postcode begins LL72.
The village of Moelfre is 5 minutes from the A5025. The nearest mainline railway stations are in Bangor and Llanfairpwllgwyngyll. These can be reached in under half an hour on the bus services which run through the village.
It was the site of the wreck in 1859 of the steam clipper The Royal Charter near the end of its voyage from Australia to Liverpool. On July 30th, 1862, the screw sloop Enrica, soon to be commissioned as the Confederate States of America warship CSS Alabama sheltered in Moelfre Bay while evading both British customs authorities and the USS Tuscarora, which had been sent to capture or sink her. There were no street lights in the village until well after the Second World War. Moelfre RNLI Lifeboat Station has a distinguished history, including the Hindlea rescue in 1959, when all the crew were rescued. There has been a lifeboat in Moelfre since 1854.
This area is by the large sandy beach Traeth Lligwy and the ancient stone homestead of Din Lligwy. Nearby Ynys Moelfre is a haven for birds, and seals and porpoises may also be seen. In the village there is a bakery, restaurants and a fish and chip shop, and the RNLI Gwylfan Moelfre Seawatch Centre has a small museum, shop and book store. The RNLI Lifeboat Station is open to the public.
Actress Jennifer Ellison was rescued by the RNLI in August 2013. off Moelfre.

In 2008, members of the Edinburgh Cine and Video Society collaborated on a project to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Dunbar Lifeboat Station where we took a collection of cameras and filmed the lifeboat crews practicing training with a variety of inshore rescue situations.
Dunbar Lifeboat Station is situated in the East Lothian town of Dunbar on the South East Coast of Scotland, part of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. The station currently has a Trent Class all weather lifeboat and a D class inshore lifeboat. At present, Gary Fairbairn is the coxswain.
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution RNLI Lifeguards is a UK wide charity that saves lives at sea all over the British Isle coastlines in addition to inshore. It was originally founded on 4th March, 1824. The RNLI has 444 lifeboats of which 332 are based on stations and a further 112 are in the relief fleet. These boats come from the 235 lifeboat stations around the coasts of Britain, Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.
The number of rescues RNLI saving lifes have doubled since since 1980. The RNLI's lifeboats managed to successfully rescue on average 21 people a day according to information during 2008. On that very year the RNLI launched 8,293 times and managed to save 7,612 people, an incredible result. Just for the record, a total of 137,000 lives have been saved since 1824 by the RNLI, an amount that clearly shows the importance of the RNLI People volunteers service.
Looking at the service at Dunbar in a timeline, we should start back in 1808 when the first ever United Kingdom RNLI boats were sent to the station. In 1810, 45 men were saved from HMS Pallas by the RNLI rescues after two trips. Unfortunately after a third attempt, the boat toppled over and everyone drowned except a few men. A sad year in 1821 as the RNLI Lifeboat Stations UK was sold and Dunbar Lifeboat Station was closed.
In 1826, Scottish Coastguard Randal Stap was awarded a silver medal and £3 for special thanks for making a difficult journey out on a rescue sea to bring back ashore the wrecked sloop Brothers all on his own. A further medal, this time silver was awarded to James Brown from the Coastguard who rescued at sea the master and one crew member from the schooner, Susan.
More optimistic news arrived in 1864 when a new lifeboat station was established by the Royal National Lifeboat Association and a boathouse was constructed for the cost of £165.00. In 1877, the Dunbar Lifeboat capsized during an exercise where two of the crew died, Clements and Robert Harkis. However, in 1901, the existing lifeboat house was demolished where a new one was built at a cost of £633.00.
The next milestone for the Dunbar Lifeboat Station was in 1905 when a silver medal was awarded to Walter Fairbairn, a Coxswain for the rescue of six from the steamship, King Ja Ja.
In 1907, a second RNLI Charity Lifeboat Station opened at Skateraw, south of Dunbar which at the time was manned by crew from Dunbar. An important historical moment took place in 1909 where the horse drawn launch took place. A Centenary Vellum was awarded in 1930 for the success of the station and service.
By 1931, the Dunbar Lifeboat resided not in the boathouse but afloat at moorings where the old boathouse was used as a gear store and a new Lifeboat crew room. During World War Two, the second RNLI Trent Lifeboat was withdrawn and the station at Skateraw closed.
Near disaster struck in 1953 where a boy falls over the cliffs but thanks for Coxswain, R Brunton, he was rescued. Brunton was awarded a Royal Humane Society's testimonial on parchment. The RNLI Dunbar Rescue Services reached it 150th anniversary by 1958 where it received it's second Vellum.
In 1968, an inshore lifeboat station was established with a RNLI Trent Class Lifeboat.

This film is of a very similar style to others I have posted so I am guessing it is also from 1947. Based around Dover Lifeboat this is a promotional film about the volunteers at the station.

Aberystwyth lifeboat on a shout part 1
This was shot on the last day of hols after chasing Pocket Rocket on the cambrian run. We are normally the lifeboats lucky mascots as they dont get called out when we are there. So when we noticed the lifeboat being taken out we knew there was a shout. So I filmed the launch and the return. They returned with a another boat which you will see in part 2

Genesis is bringing back pieces of the Sun. And these are in the form of atoms, ions from the Sun in the form of solar wind. We're collecting solar wind. We sent the spacecraft to a nice place just outside the Earth's magnetospheric bubble to allow us to collect solar wind samples and we'll bring and put them in an ultra-pure clean room and let scientists go look at them.

A lot of people want to compare this to a Hollywood stunt. It really kind of isn't because maybe in Hollywood you get one or two or three takes. This one, it's coming down once and we'd better get it straight.

STORYLINE:
A NASA space mission that began three years ago is set for a dramatic conclusion on Wednesday when a helicopter will attempt to literally catch the re-entry capsule as it falls to Earth over the US state of Utah.
The Genesis mission was launched in August 2001 with the aim of collecting solar particles.
The capsule will re-enter Earth's atmosphere for a planned landing at the U.S. Air Force Utah Test and Training Range at about 1315 GMT.
The capsule's load - with a mass equal to just a few grains of salt - is so fragile NASA cannot risk the capsule landing on a solid, or even a liquid surface.
Helicopters will be deployed to hover over the desert and snare the sample return capsule before lowering it gently to scientists waiting below.
The flight crews for the two helicopters assigned for the capture are former military aviators, Hollywood stunt pilots and an active-duty Air Force test pilot.
They have been practicing the manoeuvre over the desert for weeks using giant hooks.
The crews will be given a fix on the falling capsule by radar operators, but then it's up to them to find it, get in position behind it and snare it.
If all goes according to plan, the solar particles collected by Genesis will be the first material collected from space since Apollo 17 returned with moon rocks in 1972.
The 3-year mission of the Genesis was to travel to a remote corner of the solar system and there collect particles of solar wind for study.
Scientists have long wanted to capture a sample of particles straight from the Sun.
