How your support helped the RNLI in 2025

272 Lives saved

44,505 People aided by lifeboat crews and lifeguards

9,058 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.

Team Work

Saturday 24th Oct
I'm most excited about the challenge as part of a team showing some love to Portsmouth RNLI. It was extremely upsetting to have our city's lifeboat station closed down for a period of time over the summer because a crowd of people who don't believe all lives are worth saving, were behaving in an aggressive and intimidating way towards RNLI volunteers. These amazing volunteers are ready to go out to sea, risking their own lives to save any one of us. They don't question our worth or judge who has the right to not drown. It's with immense gratitude I support their work and the daily risks they take us to try and keep everyone safe in our country's tidal waters. All of the RNLI need supporting, but we want to show some extra love to Portsmouth RNLI. Saving All Lives At Sea 🌊💙
