Burnham-On-Sea RNLI fundraiser recognised for her dedication

A Burnham-On-Sea lifeboat fundraiser has been recognised for her dedication.

Jan Pearce, Treasurer and Acting Chairman of the Burnham-On-Sea and Highbridge RNLI Fundraising Branch, was presented with a Silver Award for Fundraising by Admiral Lord Boyce.

After a tour of the RNLI's multi-million pound lifeboat college in Poole, she was presented with her award during the South West regional award ceremony.

Jan was among over 100 RNLI volunteers to be presented with awards during the day.

She told Burnham-On-Sea.com: "I enjoyed my memorable day. The tour of the college was fascinating and it was wonderful to meet so many other people from across the South West. It was truly a great honour to receive this award."
