RNLI Clacton readying for Open Gardens Event
Volunteers at RNLI Clacton once again prepare for an annual Open Gardens event, hosted by The Hall in Tendring.
There will be two packed days of fun filled activities too, including local arts and crafts, food and drink, classic cars, legendary “hedgehog hunt”, live music and more.
This family friendly (and dog friendly too) event has so much to offer. You can throw an iconic yellow welly boot in our Welly Wanging competition, meet some of our volunteers to learn about our work to save lives at sea and enjoy food, music and local arts and crafts. We would love to thank the owners of The Hall for opening their doors
Tickets are available on the gate for £5 per person (under 12’s free) and the event will run 2pm-5pm both days.
Visit our Facebook page for more information.
