RNLI fashion show raises thousands

Monday 23rd April 2012

Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) fundraisers have displayed their flair for fashion to raise thousands of pounds for the charity.

Ladies of the Helensburgh RNLI Lifeboat Fundraising Committee have taken part in a fashion show at the Helensburgh Sailing Club in Argyll and Bute.

More than 140 women attended the event which helped to raise £2,500 for the charity that saves lives at sea.

The funds will go towards lifeboats for the RNLI, which provides a 24-hour search and rescue service and operates over 230 lifeboat stations in the UK and Ireland.
