Grab your antlers. Lace up those hooves.
Be a lifesaver.
Take on the Reindeer Run Challenge 2024! Run 24 miles throughout December – that’s one mile for every hour RNLI volunteers are on call, even on Christmas Day. If running’s not for you, you could walk, jog, or even saunter. Did you know, it only takes 20 minutes on average to walk 1 mile?
It's a fun and festive way to get active and be a lifesaver.

Our volunteer crews need your help
Every time an RNLI crew launches, they are determined to save every one. But they can’t do that without you. By taking on the challenge and raising vital funds, you’ll be helping keep our volunteers safe.
