RNLI lifeguards are back in action watching the beach in Mablethorpe
Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeguards have returned to East Lindsey to offer a reassuring presence on the Mablethorpe beach.
The charity’s lifeguards will be at their posts from 10am to 6pm. The daily service will operate until Sunday, September 4.
A service will also come on board at Sutton on Sea from July 2 with daily patrols again operating until September 4.
The role is 95 per cent preventative and the teams have completed a period of extensive training.
This ensures that every RNLI lifeguard has the vital skill-set to enable them to deal with everything from locating missing children through to performing major first-aid and lifesaving rescues.
RNLI lifeguard manager, Vincent Pank, said: “We always advise people to visit a lifeguarded beach where patrols will be on-hand to offer friendly safety advice.
“This includes to always swim between the red and yellow flags and information on tide times.”
