The Sunday Morning Welly Walk.

Eastbourne MP Nigel Waterson a keen supporter of Eastbourne Lifeboat.

Sets the pace for the Welly Walkers

The Welly Walkers meet up with both Eastbourne Lifeboats.

49 adults, 9children & 5 dogs enjoyed the "welly walk" along Eastbourne Seafront on Sunday. Approx £400 was received on the day in registration fees & donations and lots of sponsor money still has to come in.

The Children appreciated seeing the lifeboats in action and we are grateful for the support provided by Coxswain Mark Sawyer and his crew.

The bright, but cold, sunny weather helped to make this a success.

Thanks are due to the staff & curator of the Shop & Museum; The Beach-house, and those who staffed registration points. Special thanks must go to Debbie for organising and running the children's activities & providing the prizes for the "Welly wanging" & the "best dressed" pair of wellies.

Sing our Shanties, in the Arndale Centre raised about £450 & we collected approx £300 in Barclays Bank, which included contributions from the staff for their "Dress Down Day"
