Newbiggin's Atlantic 75 CSMA 75th Anniversary was just one of many RNLI lifeboats scrambled during the Winter cold snap.

Her volunteer crew members braved horrendous conditions during an incident on some nearby cliffs on 6 January. The lifeboat was called to assist around 5.40pm and was on scene within minutes. Her three crew stood by in support of shore rescue units and were joined by Amble all-weather lifeboat, which arrived to offer further support.

Both RNLI crews endured rough seas, blizzards and extreme cold until they stood down 2 hours later.
