A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our RNLI collection at Buckie Tesco today and made a donation.

We’d also like to thank everyone who took the time to have a chat with our volunteers and show their support throughout the day.

Every donation helps keep our lifeboat ready to launch when someone needs us, and we’re incredibly grateful to have such a supportive local community behind us.

From all the volunteers at Buckie RNLI, thank you! 💛

A big thank you to Buckie South & West Parish Church for the beautiful flowers and kind words of appreciation.

As part of their Harvest Thanksgiving celebrations, our station was nominated by a member of the congregation to receive this lovely floral posy.

It means a lot to know that the time and dedication our volunteers give to helping keep our local community safe is appreciated. Thank you to everyone involved for thinking of us and for this thoughtful gesture.

From all of us at Buckie RNLI, thank you! 💙🧡

Our volunteers will be at Buckie Tesco this Saturday 10 October from 10am to 4pm for our RNLI collection.

The RNLI is a charity, independent of government, and relies on the generosity of the public to continue its lifesaving work. Every donation, no matter how large or small, helps keep our lifeboat ready to launch - whether it’s a shout in the middle of the night or a rescue in rough conditions.

If you’re in doing your shopping, please stop by, say hello, and help support your local volunteer crew. ❤️

Every donation really does make a difference.

A very special fundraiser and a fitting tribute to James. 💙

Thank you to everyone who supported Sue’s Cuppa for the Crew in Buckie and helped raise more than £800 for the RNLI.

Read the full story below. 👇

We are deeply saddened to hear of the loss of a much‑loved crew member at Hastings RNLI.

On behalf of everyone at Buckie RNLI, we send our heartfelt condolences to the crew, family, and friends at Hastings during this incredibly difficult time.

Our flag flies at half mast today as a mark of respect.
We stand with you, and we are keeping you all in our thoughts.
