68K views · 3K reactions | Over the years, our lifeboat crews and lifeguards have rescued all kinds of animals, from owls and puffins to dogs and horses. As well as saving animal lives, these rescues also help keep people safe. If you ever see an animal in difficulty at the coast, don't attempt to rescue it yourself. Instead call 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard. Happy #WorldAnimalDay! | RNLI | Facebook

This amazing historic footage from 1916 shows our volunteer crews performing a practice lifeboat launch on Formby beach. Horses tow the boat onto the waves - the boathouse was 100 yards inland. Formby lifeboat station was closed a few years after this film was taken - it's claimed that it was the world's first purpose-built lifeboat station, having been established in the 1770s. Our lifeguards now keep people visiting the beach safe. #RNLI #SeaRescue #History #Archives #Lifeboats #Heritage #Hist
