Mrs Dora Haigh, a long standing lifeboat supporter in Meltham, cuts the cake at her ninetieth birthday party. With her are Brian Stevenson, regional organiser (NE) and members of Meltham ladies' guild committee. Mrs Haigh asked people not to bring presents but to give donations to the RNLI instead; £70 was thus raised.
