They are ordinary people who do extraordinary things and without them, the organisation could not continue to save lives at sea. But it’s not all about volunteering on lifeboats or at a station, you don’t even need to live on the coast. There are many other ways people can give a little or a lot of their time to support the RNLI and make their own lifesaving difference.

Betty Zitouni RNLI Fundraising Chair of Peterborough Branch said: ‘We're just a newly re-formed branch, looking for volunteers who can spare some free time helping to raise funds to save lives at sea as the RNLI has done so for the past two hundred years. You can volunteer as much or as little time as you would like.’
