Marine charities pocket vital funds from summer barbecue
Haslar Marina in Gosport held its annual barbecue earlier in the summer and raised £2,478.
The money raised has been distributed equally to Gosport & Fareham Inshore Rescue Service, Gosport Sea Cadets and the Little Brig Sailing Trust, all of which are run by volunteers.

Ben Lippiett, manager at Haslar, said: ‘Gosport Sea Cadets and the Little Brig Sailing Trust are local charities that rely heavily on public support and benefit the community hugely.
‘All represent worthy causes, introducing a range of youngsters to the joys of getting afloat and then looking after them as they do so.
‘Haslar’s berth-holders supported this choice with their usual energy, generosity and gusto, we salute you!’
