'I'll never forget what the RNLI did for me'
‘I was 21 when I jumped into the North Sea in a force-10 storm to save my 11-year-old cousin Davie. We’d been watching the waves when he got swept in. I held onto him before losing consciousness. Being face down in the water, one of the lifeboat crew from Dunbar jumped overboard to save me. They couldn’t find Davie.
‘I owe the lifeboat volunteers my life; my 50-year marriage, my three sons, my five grandchildren, and my career in education. It brings me great comfort to know that, with a gift in my Will, I’ll be helping to keep them safe at sea for years to come.’
Your name on a legacy lifeboat
When we receive your legacy gift, no matter how large or small, your generosity will be remembered. Because as a special thank you, your name, and the names of other generous supporters, will be added to the side of a future legacy lifeboat.
You’ll be right beside our brave lifeboat volunteers as they save lives at sea.
