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?

Day 5

Sunday 5th May
Got my little routes all sorted now. It’s lovely being out and about in a morning, saying Hi to the dog walkers and listening to the wildlife in the woods. 
Shame I got caught up in the Park Run yesterday. Silly idea this running business.  Haha. 

Why am I doing this??

Wednesday 17th Apr
Some will know and some won’t know of my connection with doing things for the RNLI. 
After supporting this worthwhile cause for nigh on 40 years, I took over monthly donations from my Mum when she passed away. 
This is something close to my heart and, if I can raise a few more pennies to help these people who put their lives at risk every time they go out on a shout, then I will do. 
Now…….where did I put my trainers??
Please help me to achieve my goal. 
Thank you. 
Ruth
