Volunteers at Walmer lifeboat station are offering to wash your car in exchange for a charity donation today.

The event will run at the station in The Strand from 10am to 3pm.

It follows on from last year’s effort which raised £837.

Walmer lifeboat helmsman Dan Sinclair, whose business HandyDAN is sponsoring the event, said: “All of the money raised will go to the RNLI to be spent on lifesaving training for the crew, equipment and much more.”

Drivers will be asked to donate £7 for each vehicle washed.

The lifeboat shop will be open and both Walmer’s boats – the Atlantic 85 class Donald McLauchlan and D-class Duggie Rodbard – will be on show.
