I am walking 200 miles between my 10th birthday in December 2023 and the RNLI’s 200th birthday in March 2024 to raise money to save lives at sea. I chose RNLI as I love visiting the lifeboat stations, Selsey is my local one and I love talking to the volunteers, seeing the boats and watching the videos. I wanted to help save lives and so decided to take on the challenge!

RNLI lifeboats in the South East protect hundreds of communities through our 24-hour search and rescue service. They rely on the safest, most reliable lifeboats and modern stations to launch from.

From the stunning Dorset, Sussex and Kent coastlines to the unpredictable tidal Thames, our favourite places in the South East are enjoyed by millions of people from across the country every year. But the water remains an unpredictable environment that can catch people out. People will always need our help and we will always be there to answer that call.
