How your support helped the RNLI in 2024

437 Lives saved

25,327 People aided by lifeboat crews and lifeguards

9,141 Lifeboat launches

Taking on the Reindeer Run challenge for RNLI lifesavers

RNLI supporters around the country will be donning their antlers and strapping up their hooves to run 24 miles – all to help keep RNLI volunteers safe this winter.

Freezing seas, numbing winds and sub-zero temperatures – would you fancy launching into that aboard a lifeboat? RNLI crews will be doing just that, battling the elements this winter to continue their mission to save every one.

Reindeer Runners will be raising money so they have everything they need to answer the call for help. Because no matter how harsh the winter weather might be, lifeboat crews will always launch to the rescue. I’d be so grateful if you could sponsor me.

My motivation

Tuesday 18th Nov
I have decided to take part in the reindeer run this December to help raise funds for what I believe is a massively under appreciated and underfunded charity who offer support around the clock.
A close friend of mine volunteers with the RNLI, and it has really brought my attention to the immense hard work and life saving efforts they continue to put in everyday, all year round. 
Since 1824, the RNLI have saved over 146,000 lives, so I wanted to give back this December and do what I could to show my appreciation to the charity! 
Any donations to my fundraiser would be hugely appreciated, not only by myself but I’m sure by the charity too ◡̈
