We recently went to Port Leucate for a charity event, in support of the SNSM, sea rescue organisation, similar to the function of the RNLI in the UK. We sang and they collected money. It was a hot day, but we enjoyed it.

Plans for 2023
We are making plans for 2023. We have lost a couple of crew members due to their moving away, so we are looking for new members. With that in mind we are holding an open evening in February 2023, to see whether anybody is interested in having a go at what we do.
