Remember A Charity Week

Help brave lifeboat crews save lives at sea by leaving a gift in your Will to the RNLI

Running from 9 - 15 September 2024, Remember A Charity Week encourages people to consider leaving a gift to charity in their Will. Six in ten RNLI lifeboat launches are only possible thanks to gifts in Wills from supporters like you. Will you help brave RNLI lifeboat crews save lives at sea, and come home safely themselves, by leaving a lifesaving gift to the RNLI?

Leave a gift in your Will

We wouldn’t be able to save as many lives if it weren’t for the generosity of caring supporters like you. Gifts in Wills fund 60% of our lifesaving. These gifts help give brave volunteers the training and kit they rely on as they strive to save everyone now and in the future.

A gift in your Will helps bring our brave lifeboat crews home safely. The gear and equipment that protects them from the elements, the training that turns volunteers into able crew members, and even the lifeboats themselves – your generosity will help give our crews what they need to save lives.

Your name will be added to a lifeboat

If you choose to leave a gift in your Will, no matter how large or small, your generosity will always be remembered. When we receive your gift, your name will be added to the numbers and letters on the side of a future legacy lifeboat. So, you will be part of our lifesaving family for many years to come.

Watch: How a gift in your Will could save lives at sea

A gift in your Will is our protection at sea. Six in ten lifeboat launches are only possible thanks to gifts left in Wills from supporters like you. Without your support, we couldn’t save lives at sea. Large or small, your gift will be a lifesaver.
