Thanks for taking the time to visit the Tower RNLI Station donation page.

We are the RNLI's busiest station. London is a densely populated capital city with a well used river.

Unlike coastal crews who respond to pagers, we ensure that there is a full crew on the station 24/7 and 365 days a year. To enable that to happen, our volunteer crew of 55 work at least two 12hr shifts per month at the station, supported by 10 permanent crew.

In addition to search and rescue we have a proactive marine safety and accident prevention role. We patrol the river at busy times including large events such as boat races, New Year and other festivities.  The lifeboat is often tasked to provide first aid treatment to passengers on tour and party boats, and to assist the recovery of bodies from the river. We provide a measure of assurance with our presence in a variety of situations.

All donations from this page go directly to Tower Lifeboat Station.
