Story

In the UK and Ireland alone, 140 people die by accident in the water each year. Half of those who drown never intend on entering the water. These are wasted lives; preventable deaths. And this needs to change.

The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea. In 2020, brave volunteer crew across Scotland launched to the rescue 1,071 times; that's an average of 3 launches each and every day of the year. Why? Because RNLI lifeboat crews are determined to save every one.

As a charity, we receive no government funding and need to raise an average £155,000 per year to run just one lifeboat station each year. With 46 lifeboat stations in Scotland, we rely on the support of our local communities to power our lifesaving service. Your donation to this page will help support the running of lifeboat stations in Scotland and, ultimately, help to save lives.
