The RNLI has launched its Christmas appeal as this years demand for lifeboat crews soared.

The easing of lockdown in July saw a 64% increase in the number of recreational water users aided by the charity compared to last year.

The RNLI has spent £1.2 million on PPE, including almost 700,000 face masks, 2.4 million gloves and 4,700 litres of hand sanitiser.
