Arran lifeboat crew member Caroline McGinlay is undertaking her first ever half marathon to raise money for two charities close to her heart.
The annual Arran RNLI open day attracted a big crowd to Lamlash pier on Saturday.
On Saturday July 20 the volunteer crew at Arran RNLI will welcome members of the public to their station in Lamlash for a chance to meet the crew and find out how the RNLI carries out their lifesaving work.
With 95 per cent of the RNLIs total income coming from donations and legacies, they depend on the volunteers and supporters to help keep the organisation afloat.
Rescue personnel’s pagers sounded as reports of a kayaker calling for help in the north end of Brodick Bay were reported to HM Coastguard.
While at the Lamlash Splash the crew overheard radio communications from the Fisheries Support Vessel MINNA who had spotted an overturned dinghy south of Holy Isle.
Supporters of all ages enjoyed some new fundraising activities.
