Year 1 at the Pilgrims' School are taking on the Mayday Mile challenge to support RNLI volunteers
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?

Fantastic effort, Macarthur and all your class at Pilgriims. We see our lifeboat every time we’re at the harbour in Guernsey and know some of the volunteers who work on it in emergencies. They give up their time to help us all be safe at sea. Keep going and enjoy the fun of working together!

Well done, Macarthur, and all your form - what a fantastic charity to support, especially for those of us on Guernsey who use the sea so often. A1 crab supplies on Guernsey run a great raffle each year for the same charity and if you’re out fishing or crabbing in all weathers you’d certainly understand why. Great effort - keep it up!
