Our thanks to all at East Anglian Working Newfoundlands who once again came to Wells last month to put on a show on our behalf. A good crowd on the quayside were treated to seeing these amazing rescue dogs in action in the water, culminating in a mass staged rescue by one dog bringing 14 people to shore including two of our lifeboat crew. Over £700 was raised for the lifeboat service from sponsorship and a collection taken on the quay.
