Just after Christmas 2024 we lost our running inspiration - Micky Ball.

As always, Micky did not want a fuss about himself. So, rather than flowers, we are asking for donations for charities that were dear to his heart; the British Heart Foundation and the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI).

As a charity, the RNLI depends on our donations so it can go on saving lives and keeping us and our loved ones safe at sea.

RNLI lifesavers are our lifeline. They’re 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 stop people getting into trouble in the first place.

Thank you.
