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?

I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated in my challenge! I’m so happy that I completed this walking over my intended target of 31 miles in the month of May. Your donations will help the RNLI keep everyone safe in our waters this summer. Thanks again and there’s still time to donate if you want to help me reach that £250 target I set xxx

Help me make a difference!

I’ve decided I need to start making little changes in my life. Fitness is the hardest for me, so starting with some walking, which if you know me, you’ll know I hate doing!! I know this is nothing in comparison to Johns Marathon but think by doing this to support a great cause it makes me accountable and will help keep me going!!! I’d love it if you could help me too to help me reach my target. Thanks for reading ❤️
