Having worked at sea for many years, I have witnessed firsthand the incredible work that the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) does. The RNLI is a charity that saves lives at sea through lifeboat search and rescue, lifeguards, water safety education and flood rescue. The lifeboat crews who provide 24-hour search and rescue right around the UK and Ireland, the lifeguards keeping watch on 240 of the busiest beaches in the UK and Channel Islands and the RNLI safety teams and educators working tirelessly to prevent accidents from happening in the first place.

However, the RNLI needs our help now more than ever. As a charity, the RNLI depends on our donations to continue saving lives and keeping us and our loved ones safe. By supporting the RNLI, we are supporting the lifesavers who provide a vital service to our communities.

Thank you for considering supporting me for this important cause.
