‘Help keep my brave boy safe’
‘My son Kieran is on call to rescue others this winter. As volunteer lifeboat crew, he drops everything to help people in trouble, even at Christmas. It’s tough, as a mum, when my boy disappears into the unknown. This year with the pandemic, there was the extra worry of seeing him head out while we were being told to stay home.
‘As the RNLI’s a charity, volunteers like Kieran need your kind donations to stay safe and ready to rescue. That’s why, as a proud mum of a brave RNLI lifesaver, I’m asking for your help today.’
Busier than ever
Costs Rising
Income falling
Kindness still saving lives
Your donation gives hope for a safe return
Our sons and daughters are braving the elements this Christmas. Your kindness will help keep them safe and warm in winter winds, freezing waters and huge waves. Now the volunteers on the front line need training and kit plus extra PPE, like masks and gloves – at huge cost to the charity.
Please send a special gift this Christmas. And bring them home safe to their families.
In 2019, for every £1/€1 spent, 49p/49c was on lifeboats, property and equipment; 32p/32c on running the lifeboat service; 11p/11c on lifeguard rescue; 6p/6c on safety and education; and 2p/2c on international drowning prevention.
