Visitors to Happisburgh Lifeboat Day enjoyed a wide range of games, competitions, food and drink, live music, as well as educational activities.

The RNLI community safety team gave advice on how to stay safe near water and how to enjoy themselves, and the lifeguards offered similar advice.

"At 3.30pm both Happisburgh's lifeboats were launched along with the support of RNLI lifeguards to put on a display of how all three work together to save lives at sea."
