OD Lloyd Pickering (P,1997-2002) has recently been featured in the Sunderland Echo article "Capturing the everyday lives of Sunderland's RNLI volunteers". A portrait of Lloyd, who is also a member of the Old Dunelmian Masonic Lodge, is currently on display at the National Portrait Gallery in London until 18 September. This is through a project by university student Claire Louise Bird, who has been working with the Sunderland RNLI volunteers, capturing the unseen sides of the lifeboat crews.
