Llandudno's Lifeboat station was alive with the sound of Christmas song at the weekend as many people gathered for the annual Carol Service.

This year, volunteers joined together with many family members and local supporters and over one hundred and fifty people attended, creating a warm atmosphere to compensate for the cold.

The station's lifeboats had been moved outside early in the day but remained fully operational whilst the all-weather lifeboat hall was filled with chairs and equipment and refreshments made ready in the inshore lifeboat hall.

The station was fortunate, once again, to have tremendous support from some thirty five members of Cor Meibion Colwyn who performed seasonal musical items and led with  congregational carols. A number of station personnel, including two children of a crew member, delivered Christmas readings rounded off with a final prayer and blessing from the station's chaplain and member of shore crew.

The event was only possible through the teamwork and expertise of many station personnel, chairs from Venue Cymru and transport assistance from Crest Cooperative.
