    March Meeting
    5-Mar-2024, 7.30-9:30pm
    Danbury Village Hall
    "Lightship Talk"
    By Sarah Case, FACT

    For March we are privileged to have the folk behind the vessel - the Fellowship Afloat Charitable Trust (FACT - www.fact.org.uk), who look after the Tollesbury Light Vessel, but who have quite wide range of other activities.

    Sarah Case who is a Funding Officer at FACT will be giving us a talk all about the vessel and their wider and very worthy work.

    The vessel itself was the site that CARS have operated from a few times for ILLW - International Lighthouse & Lightship Weekend - most recently as Special Event Station GB5TLV in August 2023

    All welcome - we have refreshements on offer and our famous raffle too
