“Visitors can meet the volunteer lifeboat crew and hunt the lifeboat welly around the station.”
On the day, children can meet the RNLI mascot Stormy Stan, have their face painted or have a go on the bouncy castle.
There will also be a display of model lifeboats, a tombola and stalls run by a fundraising group, refreshments and a chance to buy a souvenir from the station’s shop.
Admission will be free but all proceeds go to the Shoreham RNLI.
