To mark 25 years of the beach lifeguarding service provided by the RNLI, there’s this new series looking at the people who spend their days saving lives at sea. It throws you into the extensive training that new recruits have to undergo and the challenges posed by the ever-changing sea conditions.
You’ll hear testimony from people whose lives were saved at sea along with a lot of facts and tidbits that you wouldn’t have known otherwise, such as that quite a few recruits are trained in British Sign Language. All of the episodes are available to listen.
