High-tech
gadget will help Burnham RNLI keep a keen eye on the weather
 Members
of Berrow Social Club have presented Burnham-On-Sea RNLI with
a new electronic weather station.
The
high-tech gadget was handed over to Lifeboat
Operations Manager Ricky Holmes during
a brief presentation held on Saturday following a fundraising
quiz run by club
members Ray Hancock and Mick Fellowes.
Ricky
said: "Thank you for this wonderful gift, which will enable
us to keep an accurate assessment of prevailing wind speed and
direction from the boathouse crew room."
"As
you know, lifeboat crew are volunteers and training is expensive.
By presenting this, you have released more money for training,
and without the dedication from people like you, we wouldn’t
be able to keep running our boats."
