165. Great Scot: Anne Scott
Manage episode 398118318 series 3480777
When Anne Scott retired from her full-time job at the RNLI, Buckie lifeboat crew had other ideas. Now, RNLI stalwart Anne volunteers at the station – and sees the crew as family
One of Anne’s earliest memories is of being 4 or 5 and trying to stay awake, not for Santa Claus, but for her dad – the mechanic at Cromarty Lifeboat – to return home from a shout. Her uncle John was RNLI crew too, and her mother a passionate fundraiser.
Fittingly, Anne later became an RNLI Fundraising Manager and supported events in her patch of Scotland. She talks about her latest role as Lifeboat Operations Manager at Buckie Lifeboat Station, what being involved with the crew means to her, and about another indelible memory – lifeboat crew members putting on their best Beyoncé in fishnets and stilettos.
