About this Event

The RNLI – 200 Years and Counting!

The Royal National Lifeboat Institution celebrated its bicentenary in March 2024.

This talk explores the rich history of the RNLI, including its founding and significant milestones throughout the years.

With early 20th century photographs from our collection, the talk focuses on the lifeboat stations, past and present, located on the Lincolnshire coast.
