Members of a group of retired Royal Navy veterans and their partners are set to enjoy a long and convivial weekend in Bridlington as they meet up with local service groups during their annual visit to the town.

Buddies in Boats are a national group of ex-submariners and Royal Navy personnel who fundraise and donate to local good causes in the towns that they visit during re-unions.
In previous years the group have raised hundreds of pounds for local Bridlington charities.

During their Bridlington weekends – the group heb traditionally held a service at the War Memorial on Wellington Road where wreaths were laid in memory of fallen comrades.

Memebers will be meeting at the Telegraph Inn on Quay Road on Saturday 3rd June during the afternoon, and they can also be spotted around town by their distinctive t. shirts.

Several local veterans joined in with the Buddies weekend and re-kindled friendships from previous visits.
