91热爆

Jonathan Clark, from Poole, is one of the finalists in the Bravery category in 91热爆 Radio Solent's Make a Difference Awards for 2024. This Award is for people who have shown outstanding courage, defiance and duty in the face of perceived danger, fear or difficulty.

Jonathan is a helm at Poole Lifeboat Station and has been volunteering for the RNLI for 40 years. "Jonathan has been a linchpin at one of the busiest lifeboat stations, devoting a large part of his life, ensuring people's safety in challenging conditions, prioritizing others' well-being over his own, demonstrating courage and bravery. I witness the resolve of this remarkable individual to the lifeboat service, observing him return exhausted, with red saltwater-stained eyes and a heavy heart, when outcomes are not as hoped, but knowing that they gave it their absolute all.
His steadfastness is still as strong, with over a thousand callouts and numerous lives saved on his watch. Jonathan totally epitomises the RNLI values, selflessness, courage, dependability, and trustworthiness."

The Make a Difference Awards are your chance to say 鈥淭hank You鈥� and show recognition and appreciation for people who love to make life better for others. Nominations for the 2024 awards have now closed and finalists have been selected by a panel of judges. The winners will be announced at our 91热爆 Radio Solent Make a Difference Awards ceremony in September.
