Heroes of the Sea

The RNLI flag flies in Ballycotton Harbour.

The RNLI operates one of Ireland’s busiest lifeboat stations at Ballycotton, which launched 57 times in 2023 alone, rescuing 49 people and assisting 67 others. The station operates an all-weather lifeboat capable of handling the most challenging sea conditions off the Cork coast. Ballycotton RNLI has a proud history dating back to 1858, and the station’s crews have been awarded numerous medals for gallantry, including gold medals for particularly heroic rescues. The RNLI is a charity that relies entirely on voluntary donations and is crewed by unpaid volunteers who undergo extensive training to perform rescues in some of the most dangerous maritime conditions around the British and Irish coasts.

Von Mitte Februar letzten bis Mitte März diesen Jahres leistete Yauwarat Patkhong ihren Freiwilligendienst beim TransitionHaus und dem Kurze-Wege-Projekt. Damit war Yauwarat, meist Nana genannt, die erste Freiwilligendienstleistende beim TransitionHaus überhaupt. Nana hat bei uns tatkräftig angepackt und ist mit ihrer offenen und herzlichen Art uns wertvoll unterstützt. Ihr findet den Rückblick auf unserer Webseite. #volunteerService #TransitionTown #TransitionHaus #Bayreuth
