New Lifeboat College calendar
A new 2008 calendar by The Lifeboat College shows the training that RNLI volunteer lifeboat crews undergo. The RNLI's Lifeboat College also features on the first ever Bournemouth and Poole version of Monopoly
The 12 stunning images in The Lifeboat College calendar show real RNLI training scenarios – including night exercises, search and rescue, capsize drills and sea survival techniques.
The calendar also highlights The Lifeboat College's world-class facilities, designed to give RNLI volunteers and staff the highest level of training to do their jobs. The pictures were taken by Inshore Lifeboat Trainer, Chris Walker. Proceeds from sales of the calendar will help the RNLI to save lives at sea.
To request a calendar priced £4.95 (plus £1 p&p) – or for general enquiries about The Lifeboat College – call 0870 8332000 or email thelifeboatcollege@rnli.org.uk
The RNLI's Lifeboat College also features on the new Bournemouth and Poole version of Monopoly, which was launched last month. The award-winning landmark building is used to depict West Quay Road in Poole, which occupies the first pink square on the board.
The Bournemouth and Poole version of Monopoly is available at high street shops and Amazon.
