TRIP: It was all aboard for the ladies of Barrow Women's Institute (W.I.) when they were invited to a tour of the lifeboat station at Roa Island in gratitude of a donation they had made to the Barrow R.N.L.I.

Pat Moore, the Barrow W.I. president said: “What a wonderful time was had – and the weather was beautiful.

“Our hosts for the trip were so very informative – what a wonderful bunch of volunteers.

“The Bosuns Locker supplied a lovely and welcome tea afterwards which was a perfect end to a perfect day.”
