Looking for Something Rewarding? Become a Tour Guide at Falmouth Lifeboat Station

Falmouth RNLI is on the lookout for new volunteers to join its Visits Team, giving guided tours of the lifeboat station to visitors from near and far.

Welcoming People From All Walks of Life

The charity, which has been saving lives at sea for over 200 years and is funded by donations and operated mainly by volunteers, is offering a unique opportunity to become part of its close-knit community. The Visits Team provides free guided tours of Falmouth Lifeboat Station, where guests can view the impressive Atlantic 85 inshore lifeboat and the Shannon class all-weather lifeboat.

These tours cater for individuals, families, and groups of up to 25 people, offering insight into how the volunteer crews work together to carry out vital rescues.

No Experience Needed

You don’t need any previous knowledge or experience to get involved. Falmouth RNLI simply asks for enthusiasm and an interest in learning about its important work.

As they put it: “This is a great opportunity to promote the RNLI, meet people from all walks of life and provide visitors and locals alike an insight into how our volunteer lifeboat crews operate to save lives at sea.”
