Give money

Of the countless ways you can make a difference and give money to charity, we're honoured and so very grateful you've chosen to save lives at sea. Especially at a time when our income is down, and we need you the most.

With more people than ever needing our help, and too many still drowning, our lifeboat crews are busier than ever before. If they have any hope of reaching people safely and in time, they need vital training, stations that are fit for purpose, protective kit, reliable equipment and the fastest lifeboats. These things may be costly, but they're not as costly as a family losing a loved one to drowning.

See below the many different ways you can support our lifesavers and give money to the RNLI. As a charity, we rely on your generosity to save lives at sea. So, whether you're looking to donate money to charity or give in other ways, you can be sure your gift to the RNLI, no matter how much, will make a lifesaving difference. Not only to the people we rescue and their loved ones, but to the crew and their families too.
