Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So, what are we doing?
A group of motorcyclists, who happen to also take part in the Round Britain Rally, are riding around most of the coast of mainland Britain, visiting 15 lifeboat stations on the way. A little under 2200 miles in 9 days. The ride is intended to raise at least £1000 for the RNLI, without whom I would not be here today. There are many hundreds of others in my position and, with the public's support, there will be many hundreds more lives saved.
