Mims Davies MP has made a statement regarding the Hamble Lifeboat, which has been awarded £24, 970 under the Department for Transport's Inland and Inshore Rescue Boat Grant Fund.
Mims said:
“This substantial amount of money will very much help Hamble Lifeboat with it operations and I’m sure it will be welcomed by everyone in the Hamble and sailing community who I know hold this independent organisation in very high esteem.
“The grant from the Department for Transport is a recognition of the superb work the crew and other volunteers at the lifeboat station do to ensure the safety throughout the year of those who use the river.”
