I’m taking on the Mayday Mile Challenge to support RNLI volunteers

This May, I’m completing a mile-a-day challenge to help RNLI crews save lives at sea.

During summertime, more people flock to beaches and coastal towns to make the most of everything they have to offer – from glorious sunshine to adventurous watersports. And as temperatures rise, so do calls from people in trouble in the water.

By answering this Mayday call and giving a gift today, you can make a real, lifesaving difference. Your kindness will help give volunteers everything they need to launch to the rescue, and make sure they’re ready to face their busiest season.

Will you sponsor my RNLI Mayday Mile Challenge and support the courageous crews?

Day 2: first with my helmet!

Friday 2nd May
Did my mile after school today. Mommy brought my RNLI helmet to school, so I could wear it on my walk. I loved telling everyone I met about what I was doing and why!

Day 1: a warm start

Friday 2nd May
Today I walked my first mile round the town where I live. It was very hot! My mommy carried the school bags. My brother had put a large fossil in his that he had found at Whitby, so mommy was very tired when we got home. I also forgot my RNLI helmet, but I will wear it for my mile tomorrow.

Intro

Friday 2nd May
Hi, I'm Eleanor and I'm 5. I live near the furthest place from the sea in England. I love lifeboats. When I grow up, I want to be a doctor lifeboatman who goes into space. When I heard about the May Day Mile I really wanted to do it to raise money for the lifeboat. My mommy will be doing the challenge with me and I will wear my lifeboat helmet so everyone knows what I am doing!
