Story

Hello everyone!

My name is Dot Porter, I’m gearing up to leap out of a plane on 7th August 2024 and freefall through the skies, all to support the Freshwater Bay Golf Club Captains Charity of the Year: the Freshwater Bay Lifeboat on the Isle of Wight.

The Freshwater Bay Lifeboat is a lifeline for our community. Their brave volunteers risk their lives to save others, providing critical emergency services and rescuing those in peril on our waters. They are unsung heroes who work tirelessly to keep us safe, and now it's our turn to support them.

Together we can raise much-needed funds for the Freshwater Bay Lifeboat – “Spirit of the West Wight V”. Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly to supporting their life-saving operations.

Please donate what you can, and share this campaign with your friends and family. Let’s spread the word and help keep our waters safe!

With all my love and gratitude,

Dot Porter
