OTD 1946 Whitby RNLB MaryAnn Hepworth was launched to aid MFV Easter Morn as she entered the harbour in a northerly storm. A huge wave had washed a crewman into the sea, crewman Harland entered the water and rescued the man. For this act Harland was awarded the RNLIs Silver Medal

OTD 1861 Whitby Lifeboat with Coxswain John Storr (pictured) at the helm capsized in the 'Great Storm' whilst attempting to rescue shipwrecked sailors. Of the 13 man crew only one survived. Today we remember the 12 Lifeboatmen who gallantly give their lives on that fateful day.

A jet bracelet carved with Lily of the Valley. This fragrant and pretty flower was a firm favourite in Victorian design, it’s symbolism was focused on rebirth and the return of happiness, an ideal theme for #whitbyjet as it crossed over from periods of mourning to normal life.
