Bembridge Lifeboat starts its Yellow Welly Week programme by joining the Bembridge Street Fair in Bembridge Village. The published time is 11am to 4pm, which makes it an easy bank-holiday Monday stop if you want the RNLI presence as part of a wider village day rather than a separate station visit.
The useful part here is the mix: a street fair gives you stalls, food, movement and a reason to wander, while the lifeboat team brings the local coastal-safety and fundraising thread into the middle of the village. It should suit families who want a low-commitment outing and anyone who likes supporting island groups without sitting through a formal event.
Plan it as a relaxed village stop, not a formal station tour. The boathouse and shop are open during Yellow Welly Week, but the Monday fair appearance is in Bembridge Village. Check travel and parking before setting off, as bank-holiday events can get busy quickly; the community events calendar is useful if you want more low-key island fundraisers.
