Fundraising is vital to the RNLI. Your support allows the RNLI to provide a 24-hour on-call search and rescue service around the coast of the UK and ROI. As a charity we rely on you to help us raise the £325,000 per day that we need to run the 233 lifeboat stations and 337 lifeboats so we can continue saving lives at sea.

 

With our strong volunteering ethos, the RNLI is also ideally placed to teach young people about what it means to be an active citizen. It is thanks to the willingness of RNLI crew members to give their time and energy for free that more of the money raised can be spent on first-class lifeboats and equipment. Whether it's a coffee morning or you want to adopt us as a charity of the year, your money really will make a difference.
