Choir rock Hunstanton for the RNLI
Singers belted out the hits with two rocking shows for the charity that saves lives at sea.
They were then joined by 300 more voices from across East Anglia, along with as far afield as Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Oxfordshire, for a blistering two-hour show.
Conducted by choir leaders Sally Rose and Dave Easter, they showcased hits by artists including the Foo Fighters, Phil Collins, Fleetwood Mac, Oasis and Stevie Wonder, before finishing off with Sweet Child O' Mine by Guns & Roses.
Hundreds gathered on The Green at Hunstanton for the show, while RNLI volunteers with collecting buckets were kept busy by donations from the crowd.
The event followed performances by the choir in 2024 to raise funds for the RNLI in its 200th anniversary year.
'The RNLI is our main focus, we just love coming to sing here for them,' said Sally while she took a breather between performances.
'All the Rockies who came last year wanted to come again, we just wanted to come back and try and raise some more money.
'We have people who paddle board and do other stuff on the water around here, so it's important to keep raising money for the RNLI because who knows when they might need it.'
As Sweet Child O' Mine faded away to rapturous applause, Hunstanton RNLI treasurer Jackie Merralls told the crowd the station was one of more than 200 around the coast of the UK and Ireland, which are all reliant on donations for their lifesaving work.
Dave Cleland, one of the station's senior helms, said its crew launched 45 times during 2024, aiding 27 people.
Volunteers have so far dealt with 30 'shouts' during 2025, while their work would not be possible without to kindness of those who donate or organise events for the RNLI.
