Episode 164 – A New Wave: Lucy Crichard

Lucy Crichard is the RNLI’s first sustainability apprentice. In this episode, she shares what drew her to the role, and reveals her efforts to inspire others like her.

The winner of the MAKE UK Business Apprentice Rising Star award for the South-West - Lucy Crichard - believes we can all be change-makers. Hear why she started a Sustainability Champions newsletter, and why she takes part in the RNLI’s annual Women in Engineering Day - an event that allows schoolgirls to take part in STEM activities.

Since this episode was recorded, Lucy was also named Runner-Up at the MAKE UK National awards. In this episode, she also talks about how climate change affects sea-goers here and now, revealing why the RNLI maintains close ties with organisations like Surfers Against Sewage.
