Hundreds of people defied the rain to support another fantastic Seaside Special at Torbay Lifeboat Station. The Seaside Special is Torbay’s biggest fundraiser of the year and rounds off a week of activities ranging from Walk the Extra Mile to Cover the Flag, quiz nights to coffee mornings, angling contests to lifeboat tours. The main event was filled with watersports fun, including a Paddle Grand Prix with kayaks, stand-up paddleboards and rafts, as well as opportunities to try canoeing and zorbing. Search and rescue and flyboard displays wowed the crowd, while the area around the station was abuzz with bands,
crafts, food, drink, souvenirs and much more. As the day drew to a close, fireworks lit the sky over the station, with this incredible fundraising effort by the Torbay team bringing in more than £18,000 to help save lives at sea. A phenomenal success.
