On the eve of the RNLI’s 200th anniversary, volunteers from Ireland’s oldest RNLI lifeboat station in Arklow have been reflecting on their station’s remarkable past.
A symbiotic relationship stretching back nearly two centuries, the Arklow community and its RNLI Lifeboat crews have supported one another to make the ancient Viking town and its stunning coastline safer for generations.
The Arklow RNLI Fundraising Branch has announced that some 400 tickets for their hugely popular ‘Hurry to the Curry’ fundraiser have sold out in double-quick time.
In a heart-warming gathering, all 12 children from the Fitzgerald family in Arklow came together recently to commemorate the lives of their beloved parents, Sadie and Eddie, by launching a memorial bench in the heart of the seafaring town.
