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?

By the sea

Sunday 5th May
I love walking the dogs by North East coast but seeing the size of the waves and the speed at which the swell changes is a good reminder of the importance of  the RNLI!

Long drive

Saturday 4th May
Journeyed North to see my Dad! Pleased that I still managed 5 miles to keep my goal going!

Dogs were at home today with Molly so I did not have my regular walks with them today! Had to walk by myself and was quickly bored with my own company 😂

Saving Lives at Sea

Saturday 20th Apr
It’s only a miracle given the amount of time we spend by sea we have not had to call on RNLI it’s so reassuring to know they are there! That’s why I’m doing the Mayday Mile challenge.
