On Sunday, 12th May, at 12:14, Newhaven RNLI’s volunteer lifeboat crew were called into action to rescue two individuals who had been cut off by the tide east of Seaford Beach.
Responding swiftly, the RNLI launched the Severn Class 17-45 lifeboat, ‘The Duke of Kent,’ following reports from a nearby fishing vessel that two people were stranded between Splash Point and Hope Gap.
