Story

Welcome and thank you for visiting my fundraising page!!
The mug shot on the left is of yours truly, with the Barry Dock Lifeboat appearing from my left shoulder,
I have been a crewmember here in Barry for nearly 8 years and we are a fairly busy boat, with "shouts" to various casualties including fishing vessels, merchant shipping, aircraft (Cardiff International airport is just down the road!), sailors, and windsurfers to name but a few.

I decided to run in the 2005 London Marathon as a challenge after turning 40 (oops, the "f" word!!!). I am looking forward to April 17th with some trepidation! If you happen to be watching the telly that day, I'll be the one in the bright orange vest............!!!

The RNLI is supported entirely by voluntary contributions, and without people like you we would not be able to go to sea in the best boats and with the best safety equipment.
Please would you like to help, in whichever way you can, by sponsoring me for my Marathon Plod!!
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: the RNLI will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. Thank you so much for your support - and please, please do drop into the station at any time for a cuppa and a welsh cake, we would love to see you! Thanks once again, Best Wishes, Vicki Phillips ***********NEWSFLASH!!!!!************** 17th April, 2005 PS GOT ROUND IN ONE PIECE!!! DIDN'T BEAT PAULA BUT MAYBE NEXT YEAR!! A HUGE THANK YOU TO ALL WHO SUPPORTED ME BOTH ON THE COURSE AND OFF IT! BIG HUGS, Vicki xxx
