Its vessels include Diamond Jubilee, the Eastbourne all weather lifeboat, and the Eastbourne inshore lifeboat.

The station was established almost 200 years ago and two years before the Royal National Lifeboat Institution was founded, in 1822.

The RNLI is an independent charity, funded by voluntary donations.
