Rube will be cycling 4 miles everyday for the entire month of April , totalling 120 miles in a month. Read the below and please help us to bring this new lifeboat home to Looe. Rube see’s how unbelievable the crew of the RNLI are and how they put their own lives at risk to save other. When Rube grows up her dream is to be a beach lifeguard and then hopefully into  RNLI crew herself. 

In 2010 the D-Class Inshore Lifeboat Ollie Naismith was officially named and went on service at Looe. The lifeboat was named after a popular local teenager Ollie Naismith who sadly died in a tragic road traffic accident in 2009. Ollies parents, Maxine and John Naismith spearheaded a fundraising campaign to raise the funds for the lifeboat which has gone on to save many lives in and around Looe including the life of Louis Webber, a young local lad who was of a similar age to Ollie. The lifeboat is now coming to the end of its operational life so the team at Looe Lifeboat station are teaming up with the Naismiths and Webber family to launch the Looe Lifeboat Appeal to raise the £78,000 required to provide a replacement lifeboat which will be named the Ollie Naismith II.Your donation to this community appeal will help to fund this lifeboat which will continue the selfless work of our volunteer lifeboat crew in Looe.
