Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page! 

H2Only asks participants to give up the drinks they love and only drink water for 10 days. By asking friends and family for sponsorship throughout your challenge you’ll be helping support our volunteer lifesavers. You can choose to do H2Only anytime, with a team or on your own. You can even decide to go H2Only for more than 10 days- if you’re brave enough!   We're doing it from 5pm 22 Jan to 5pm 1 Feb. 

The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea. Its volunteer lifeboat crews rescue an average of 24 people every day and RNLI lifeguards provide a seasonal lifeguard service on selected beaches. The RNLI is independent from Government and relies on donations from people like you.

Keeping a modern fleet of lifeboats ever-ready to go to the rescue from over 238 lifeboat stations is an expensive business. Add to that crew training, running a lifeguard service on more than 240 popular beaches and campaigning for water safety, and the pounds start to add up.

It cost around £485,000 a day in 2016 to run the RNLI, all of which was generously donated by the public. This might sound like a lot, but we think the 23 people our lifeboat crews rescue on average every day are worth it. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
