EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a momentous occasion in the summer of 1964. Invited guests are seen eagerly boarding the Llandudno lifeboat Lilly Wainwright, ready to embark on an unforgettable trip around the bay. The picture was taken at Rhos jetty during the annual flag day event organized by the Colwyn Bay branch of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), a renowned charity dedicated to saving lives at sea. In this snapshot from history, we witness a display of unity between local communities and emergency services. The crew members stand tall on their life-saving vessel, proud and ready for any rescue mission that may come their way. As tourists look on with curiosity, they too become part of this extraordinary experience. This image serves as a reminder of the selfless work carried out by charitable organizations like RNLI during times when ships were still crucial means of transport. It is a testament to humanity's unwavering commitment to ensuring safety at sea. Preserved through time, this photograph not only commemorates an important event but also invites us to reflect on our shared responsibility towards one another. It reminds us that acts of kindness can transcend generations and inspire future endeavors in service to others. Captured by an unknown staff member, this print from Memory Lane Prints transports us back in time while reminding us how far we have come in safeguarding lives along our coasts.
