How your support helped the RNLI in 2024

437 Lives saved

25,327 People aided by lifeboat crews and lifeguards

9,141 Lifeboat launches

I’m taking on the Mayday Mile Challenge in memory of my Uncle David, he loved the RNLI and would want me to support RNLI volunteers

This May, I’m completing a mile-a-day challenge to help RNLI crews save lives at sea. My Uncle David loved the RNLI and he thought they were great. It was something that really was special to him and my husband and our family. 

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?

Memory Challenge

Wednesday 25th Mar
I am doing the May Mile in memory of my Uncle David. He loved the RNLI and it was a special connection between him and Mark and our family. 

On their annual holiday they would visit whatever station was near and he would always buy RNLI merch. His T-shirts and caps he loved and would wear all the time.
