Loch Lomond Rescue Boat has launched a £300,000 funding drive to relocate its base in a bid to save more lives – warning there will be more deaths unless the move is made soon.
The service, entirely manned by volunteers, is a valuable resource on the loch and the River Leven and has been based at Luss since it was founded in 1977.
Its crew is looking for a new base and has identified a suitable site in Balloch – however around £300,000 in funding will be required to get it up and running.
