We are devastated that one of our much-loved crew members died following a medical incident at Hastings RNLI lifeboat station last night.

Please respect our privacy, and that of our family and friends, at this awful time.

πŸ’™ THANK YOU, HASTINGS πŸ’™

Over the past few weeks, our volunteer crew and fundraisers at Hastings RNLI have been overwhelmed by the kindness and support shown to us by our local community.

We simply wanted to say thank you.

Hastings has always been incredibly supportive of its lifeboat station, but the response over the past few weeks has meant a great deal to all of us.

Our volunteers are proud to be part of this community and proud to continue a lifesaving tradition in Hastings that stretches back generations.

To everyone who has donated, visited our shop, supported our fundraising, sent us a message or stopped one of our volunteers to say a few kind words:

Thank you, Hastings. Your support really does mean the world to us. πŸ’™

ANOTHER SUPER DAY FOR HASTINGS RNLI!

It's the end of a fantastic training weekend for Hastings Lifeboat Station, marking the culmination of months of intensive training and commitment from our volunteer crew.

Today, Dan passed out as Tier 1 ILB Boat Crew, while Harry completed his Tier 2 ILB pass out - an incredible hat-trick for Harry, with three pass outs in as many weeks!

A huge thank you to everyone who turned out, supported the training and helped make this weekend possible. The hard work has resulted in an impressive seven ILB pass outs, further strengthening our operational capability and resilience as a station.

A fantastic achievement all round β€” congratulations to Dan, Harry and everyone involved. Great teamwork and a brilliant result for Hastings Lifeboat Station 😊
