The Twickenham Branch of the RNLI : info@RNLItwickenham.org.uk
Lively
Involving
Successful
With a huge range of activities running throughout the year, we are a truly vibrant
group who work together to support the RNLI -
WE ARE ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PEOPLE TO HELP US -
Organising our events keeps us involved with the local community. Also, since the
establishment of Teddington Lifeboat Station -
The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is a registered charity, whose function is to save lives at sea, on coasts and on certain inland waterways. This is a vital service, operating on a 24/7 basis in all weather conditions. It is necessarily a massive, complex and expensive operation, and one way in which the cost is met is through the tireless activities of local fundraising branches like ours.
Our branch operates through the districts of Twickenham, Teddington, St Margarets, Whitton, Sunbury, the Hamptons and Ashford (Middlesex). It has been in existence since 1959, and over that time has collected over a Million Pounds for the RNLI!
(Oh, the little lady above? She’s Tess, our canine helper, who has become a familiar figure at our Teddington Lock stall each summer weekend!)
Since the founding of the Branch, we have managed to raise the staggering sum of
over ONE MILLION POUNDS for the Institution -
We are currently trying to find a successor for our Branch Secretary -
Bob Tough
It is with great regret that we have to announce the passing of Bob Tough, MBE, RINA, Branch President and founder member.
