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 – Brighton Boaties Backing RNLI wouldn’t fancy launching into that even 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.

Please help raise funds for the RNLI

My Updates

Thanks South Downs Strollers

Tuesday 2nd Dec
A walk to my walking group, The South Downs Strollers, a walk with my walking group, then a walk home has given me a huge lift to reaching my December target of 24 miles. It turned out to be a beautiful day despite a poor weather forecast. If you don’t walk with a group, try it! It’s huge fun, great conversation, superb leadership (for those of us who are forever followers on walking routes), with the added bonus of nice coffee somewhere along the route. 

Starting again

Monday 1st Dec
It’s 1 December, time to start again to hit that 24 mile target for December. I’m an “Activity Anywhere” person, even around Lake Ontario in Canada last weekend! Help me to achieve this December target. I’ll keep up my activity but please can you help RNLI with even more donations! Huge thank you to all my sponsors to date, but RNLI needs as many of you as possible.

Accessible walks with stunning views …

Monday 24th Nov
You don’t nave to be in the middle of nowhere to enjoy stunning views on your walk. Have you taken the 5 km Undercliff Walk from Brighton Marina to Peacehaven? https://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/libraries-leisure-and-arts/seafront/undercliff-walk

Made it but not finished yet!

Wednesday 12th Nov
Little surprised that my bike rides to the marina were included in my 24 mile target, but I am keeping going to make sure that I make the target by walking! What luck to live in a place right by the South Downs National Park. Lots of chalk cliffs so I’m sure the coastline of the Park is well known to the RNLI!

Time to start recording activity

Tuesday 4th Nov
Never know what nasty could be waiting around the córner to stop me achieving my 24 Reindeer miles by walking, so thanks to my walking group. I’ve starting recording my activity today. Best for me to get those Reindeer miles in the bank!

How easy is it to walk/run 24 miles in December?

Thursday 23rd Oct
Most of us probably walk at least a mile a day around our homes, just doing our daily tasks! Add to that Christmas shopping, mailing Christmas parcels, going to Christmas parties and other Christmas events, meeting up with family for Christmas, and that walk after Christmas lunch and you are there! So join us, and if not please at least donate to our page. Remember, you don’t need to plan to climb Scafell Pike to reach the magic figure. That would be a silly thing to do without a full set of snow equipment! Save money and join us, or at least donate some of what you have saved to our RNLI fund raising page! Merry Christmas …
