Story

65 years ago, I was rescued by the RNLI. So in 2022 I am helping them by completing a 21 mile walk to raise much needed funds for their lifesavers. Alongside my son, on the 16th July I will start my walk from Littlehampton Lifeboat Station all the way to Worthing pier, and back again on the 1st anniversary of getting my replacement ankle! 

The RNLI protect us all, and so many places I love. From the stunning Dorset, Sussex and Kent coastlines to the unpredictable tidal Thames, our favourite places in the South East are enjoyed by millions of people from across the country every year. But the water remains an unpredictable environment that can catch people out. People will always need our help and we will always be there to answer that call.

By supporting my challenge and donating to a much loved charity you really will help save lives and protect local communities for years to come. 

Thank you.
