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?

Swimmer saved in the nick of time 11th August 1988

Saturday 4th May
Here I am aged 15 headlining the Grimsby evening News and our Local (for me at the time) Bradford Telegraph and Argos newaspaper!
I was the first major rescue to be carried out by Senior Helmsman Bill Tuplin and crewmen Andy Storr and Andy mayfleid in thier new and yet unamed lifeboat.
Research leads me to believe the D-Class model EA16 boat was later named Braemar This was an inflatable boat which was operated from 1987 by the RNLI.
I noticed how in the article I am quoted to have said ' It has taught me a lesson - I won't go in the water again!" Which for many years I didnt. Now you would struggle to keep me out of it!
I am in awe of the work the lifeboat teams, crew, at sea, behind the seas, everyone involved does and mainly voluntarily too. What kindhearted and brave souls they all are.
Thank you, all of you!
