A fundraising day which turned Ilfracombe yellow has raised £2,600 towards a new lifeboat support vehicle. Supporters adopted the colour in tribute to the luminous waterproofs worn by volunteers when they are called out. The campaign needs to raise £1 million for RNLI's new launch and recovery vehicle. Tony Gillam said: "The enthusiasm has gone beyond anything we imagined, and we've got high hopes that Yellow Day will be a bright spot in the diary for many years to come."
