Throughout 2023 the Torquay-based Rockchoir made Torbay Lifeboats their chosen Charity of the year and by various events raised £1,800 for the local lifeboats. Fundraisers’ Chairman Peter Thorp was invited to hear the Choir at one of their Concerts at All Saints Church, Babbacombe just before Christmas and this week Peter was pleased to present leader Richard Toomer and the whole Choir with a “Thank You” Certificate. Peter says “As we enter our 200th Anniversary year since the formation of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution supporting our local Lifeboats financially continues to be crucial and the Rockchoir’s donation will be put to very good use to maintain our lifeboats and assist their Crews”

The 6th Torbay Britannia Sea Scouts (RN 29) recently held their annual Carol service and the Trustees decided that all proceeds from the collection would be donated to our Torbay RNLI.
Many thanks to all who attended the packed service and donated to the cause.
The collection raised a total of £200.
