Glister Award Shared

Mr Patrick Pile and Mr Martin Helmer, of Southwold, Suffolk, who are in the local ILB crew, share the annual award of £5 known as 'The Ralph Glister Award' for a service they carried out on February 6, 1972, when three men were rescued from a capsized dinghy.

The awards are made from a gift of £100 received in 1968 from a donor, who wished to remain anonymous, to be invested so that an annual award of £5 could be made..
