BAD weather could not stop Dwyfor and Meirionnydd residents paying thanks to various emergency services.

The annual Barmouth Blue Lights Day organised by the North Wales Police took place at the RNLI boathouse on Sunday, 6 August.

Held under somewhat inclement weather there was much to enjoy with ‘Blood Bikes’ showing off their new motorcycle, the RNLI, North Wales Fire Service and Barmouth Coastguard and Mountain Rescue.

Making a first appearance were Welsh Hearts and the Royal Lifesaving Society, putting on displays.
