Sarah Todd and David Collins, surrounded by other children from Fairfield Primary School, Penarth, present a cheque for £90 to Captain W. G.

Sommerfield, honorary secretary of Penarth station branch, and to Mrs H.

Fearnley, wife of the second deputy launching authority. The school holds a collection every year for the RNLI and the children are also prolific stamp and foreign coin collectors - that's for the lifeboats, too.
