The National Sea Rescue Institute were fortunate recipients of a R50 000 donation from Aberdare Cables.

“At a function held at the NSRI Port Elizabeth rescue base we were extremely thankful to receive the donation by Mr. Dave Arnold, Group Human Capital Manager of Aberdare Cables,” says NSRI Regional Director of the Eastern Cape, Clive Shamley.

Aberdare Cables is a national power cable manufacturer that has distributed electrical power in South Africa for over 60 years.

“The company has long been NSRI supporters, says Shamley.

“We view the NSRI as a beneficiary organisation worthy of support, as it provides a service to the broad based community in the terms of its education drive,” says Arnold.

He added that he trusts the donation will be put to good use in upgrading and renewing the much needed resources and equipment for the Eastern Cape NSRI.

“We are not just supportive of the Eastern Cape NSRI, but also sea rescue nationally,” says Arnold.
