Belinda and James Richardson paid a visit to all three Orkney lifeboat stations yesterday whilst on their RNLI-911 Challenge to drive anti-clockwise around the whole of the British Isles.

The couple are visiting all 238 RNLI lifeboat stations in a Porsche 911, within 911 hours, to raise in excess of £238 per lifeboat stations (£56,644 in total).

The couple from London have been fervent supporters of the RNLI since owning an inflatable on the Thames over 20 years ago and have a passion for owning a Porsche 911 for more than 50 years!

They enjoyed the Orkney hospitality and thanked Northlink Ferries very much for sponsoring their travel to the Northern Isles.
