Hands-on history of lifesaving
A 2-year interactive exhibition on search and rescue has opened at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall in Falmouth.
We’ve loaned the museum a B class lifeboat, a lifeguard all-terrain vehicle and a range of collection boxes spanning 150 years of fundraising history. Visitors can climb aboard a Sea King helicopter, or take command in a virtual Coastguard operations room.
Meanwhile, the RNLI museum at Eastbourne, East Sussex, has been brought right up to date with a fresh new look and reopened (pictured).
Admission is free; find opening times on rnli.org.uk.
