Royal Recognition for the Audlem Lass

Now in its fourth year of operation, the Audlem Lass team were proud to receive royal recognition for their creative fundraising activities which include developing the Audlem Lass water taxi service that operates at weekends from Overwater Marina to the village of Audlem.

Rodney & Christine Cottrell, the driving force behind the Audlem Lass, were delighted to be invited to a garden party at Buckingham Palace on earlier in the summer, hosted by the RNLI President, HRH Prince Michael Duke of Kent.

The event was held to show recognition to the continued support and level of commitment shown by the RNLI fund raising teams all over the country.

At a further prestigious RNLI ceremony held at York Racecourse, Crewe & Nantwich Branch committee members, Philip & Penny Everall, were very honoured to receive an award that highlights the appreciation for the branch's unsurpassed fundraising efforts to help save lives at sea.

These awards are only given in truly deserving cases and reflect the dedication of past and present members and volunteers who continue to pledge their support.

Following the third extremely successful Audlem RNLI Festival, attracting 1,500 visitors and achieving £4,000 for this event alone, the Audlem Lass team are extremely proud of this recognition and their certificate is now on display at Overwater Marina.
