Night 1 of this set and my fantastic crew tonight are @SaviourMedical, Mark B and @EllieRibbits. So far we have all been watered and fed and been afloat on an exercise. Rescued a member of public’s jacket with house keys in and now back at station and #TimeForACuppa ☕️ 🧥🔑
Day 2 of this set and we are joined today by the legend @EllieRibbits. 2x calls so far with @MPSonthewater and a wee jaunt inbound to the shallow end to collect stores from our friends @ChiswickRNLI. It’s definitely now #TimeForACuppa ☕️
On Friday, The Duke of Kent, President of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (@RNLI), opened their new RNLI Tower Lifeboat Station in London.
His Royal Highness arrived at the station in an E-class RNLI lifeboat.
On Friday 23 June, HRH The Duke of Kent officially opened our brand new Lifeboat station.
Thank you to all the generous donors who made this possible - your support will enable us to continue saving lives on the river for many years to come!

Well you don't see that everyday! Watch @TowerRNLI station being towed across London.
It's being replaced by a new station, providing crews and casualties with facilities fit for the future. Tower is our busiest station, saving 355 lives since 2002.
