Redcar Lifeboat Station is £100 richer thanks to donations collected by a man recovering from heart surgery.

Norman Evans MBE raised the money by collecting in Redcar High Street.

Following his recovery from heart surgery he has resumed his fundraising, cheering shoppers up with his music, and raising money for charity at the same time.

Volunteers at Redcar Lifeboat Station said they thanked Norman for raising the money and the town's people who had generously made donations
