Buckingham Palace Garden Party
In July 2008 Coxswain Dan Jones and his wife Jean were invited to a garden party at Buckingham Palace to celebrate Dan’s 23 years of service, the last 14 of which have been as coxswain.
Dan met the RNLI president, The Duke of Kent, and chatted to him about the trip the Duke took on the Andy Pearce, Llandudno’s all weather lifeboat, some years ago with Dan as coxswain.

The Queen, Duke of Edinburgh and Princess Anne were also present at the garden party which took place on a hot sunny day.
