Cash boost for lifeboat
THE RNLI Queensferry Lifeboat Station has received a £1500 donation from Forth Crossing Bridge Constructors.
The consortium offered to donate £500 to charity for each of the local residents who have volunteered to host environmental monitoring stations to measure dust, noise and vibration as building work progresses. Three of them selected the RNLI.
Project director Carlo Germani said: “This is a great way to say thank you to the whole community and reward the neighbourliness of the people kind enough to accommodate our monitoring equipment.”
