These include Devon Air Ambulance Trust, CHICKS (Country Holidays for Inner City Kids) and to Tommy\u2019s, who provide vital research into premature birth. This year the Coast &amp; Country Cottages team has chosen to support the local charity, Salcombe RNLI.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Doyle, Coast &amp; Country Cottages Managing Director says, \u201c<em>We are delighted that Salcombe RNLI is our chosen charity this year. This is an invaluable organisation and plays a very important role in this coastal community. Many <\/em><em>of the locally based team members have close connections with Salcombe RNLI, and it is an organisation that is very close to our hearts<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>2019 is a historic year for the RNLI in picturesque waterside Salcombe, as this essential service celebrates 150 years of operation in the town. As featured on BBC2\u2019s documentary \u2018Saving Lives at Sea\u2019, Salcombe RNLI has performed hundreds of life-saving rescues off the South Devon coastline since the first station was founded in 1869 at South Sands. A registered charity run entirely on voluntary contributions, the service is reliant on the support of 34 local men and women volunteers to operate two boats &#8211; a 25 knot Tamar Class All Weather Lifeboat \u2018The Baltic Exchange III\u2019, and a 35 knot B Class Inshore Lifeboat \u2018Gladys Hilda Mustoe\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Jon continues, \u201c<em>It gives us great pleasure to support the RNLI, and we would like to take the opportunity to congratulate the organisation on the milestone achievement of 150 years of operations in Salcombe<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coxswain of Salcombe RNLI Chris Winzar comments, \u201c<em>We really appreciate the support of Salcombe businesses such as Coast &amp; Country Cottages. The RNLI is such a valuable service to the town, and a massive part of the community.\u00a0 We are delighted to be celebrating 150 years in Salcombe and will be hosting a number of events throughout 2019 to mark the occasion.
