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.
A year ago, my son and his girlfriend moved to Somerset, just 30 minutes from the coast. They love walks with their dog along the beaches and costal paths, so I thought that doing a mile a day for the RNLI was a good option, especially as it's probably less well supported than the Cancer or Alzheimer charities running similar events. I also felt that the unpredictable weather we are experiencing this year probably means that the RNLI services are going to be used more than ever, with people genuinely being caught out.
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?

My Updates
Last Mile
Friday 31st May Thanks to all my supporters - those that have kindly donated and those that have helped me to keep going. I have managed to complete 40 miles over and above my normal activity, so I am very pleased. I also managed to do at least a mile every single day of May, even when on holiday. A mix of dog walking and golf to finish off this challenge today was a lovely ending. Share
Somerset
Thursday 30th May Sorry I've been a bit quiet the last few days, but I've been down in Somerset doing lots of activities. Plenty of walking, playing golf and a lot of steps - up and down Jacob's Ladder. Share
