SEA-RESCUE team Calshot RNLI are on the search for two volunteers who will make waves in the media.

The station, which operates two lifeboats, is asking for two press officers who can send out stories of Calshot volunteers who keep the station operating and rescue those in danger.

Calshot Lifeboat Operations Manager Diane Carrier said: "The volunteer roles of the Lifeboat Press Officer (LPO) and Deputy Lifeboat Press Officer (DLPO) are so important in keeping this station going.

"The RNLI relies entirely on the support of the public to fund our lifeboats and training and without Lifeboat Press Officers promoting our rescues and telling the stories of our incredible fundraisers our voice wouldn’t be heard.

"Getting those stories out is more important than ever as, across the country, we are launching more than ever, but our funding is falling. It’s a perfect storm and we can only weather it if we can find people to volunteer for these hugely important roles."

To apply, contact Regional Media Officer in London and South East, Paul Dunt, on 07785 296252 or paul_dunt@rnli.org.uk.
