We're taking on the Mayday Mile challenge to support RNLI volunteers
This May, we're 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 by 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 our RNLI Mayday Mile challenge and support the courageous crews?

A donation of £257.50 made in memory of my late mother, Ruth Sturgeon, who passed away on 20 March 2025. In accordance with her wishes, we invited donations in lieu of flowers at her funeral on the Isle of Coll. The total raised was £515, which we are dividing equally between Diabetes UK and the RNLI, both of which were causes close to her heart.
