3 year old Finlay sees daddy rush off when the pager sounds, and he says he wants to be on the crew like daddy when he grows up. Finlay, and mum Heather, are walking a mile every day in May to raise money for Kyle lifeboat station.
This May, we're 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 by 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 our RNLI Mayday Mile challenge and support the courageous crews?
Thank you to our Sponsors
