THE sale of two rare Ferraris has helped fund the new Pwllheli lifeboat house. The station has received part of the most valuable gift ever left to the RNLI in a single legacy. Thanks to the £2.8million provided through the generous legacy of Richard Colton, Pwllheli’s volunteer crew can soon look forward to moving into their new home. Mr Colton left an extraordinary gift to the RNLI in his will in the form of two rare Ferraris. Both cars were sold at auction, raising more than £8.5million. In addition, the £100,000 community arm of the fundraising appeal has also been hugely successful, raising £83,000 towards the impressive new building so far. The dedicated Pwllheli Lifeboat Station Fundraising Team is still hard at work raising the remaining total and continues to sell the remaining 215 £50 bricks which make up a special commemorative wall at the station.
