At their installation meeting in January, Lewis Lodge raised £300 which they donated to the RNLI.
Lewis Lodge presented the cheque to the Workington lifeboat crew lead by coxswain John Stobbart.
John Stobbart invited Lewis lodge members and families on board to see the new state of the art £2m Shannon class lifeboat. We were then treated to a trip out to sea to demonstrate some of the lifeboat’s outstanding capabilities Everyone was impressed by the new lifeboat and the insight they gained into the essential work that the volunteer crews do in keeping our seas and shoreline safe. In fact, not only at sea, they gave invaluable assistance and support when Cumbria suffered massive flooding inland.
