My Story

Some intrepid volunteers are taking on a challenge on Sunday 1 May as they walk around the entire distance of Poole Harbour (the second natural largest harbour in the world).

The volunteers will be walking a total distance of 41km (26 miles) and they are calling on your support to keep them going. 

Starting at the lifeboat station at 0530 Sunday morning they'll head down towards the chain ferry to cross the harbour entrance.

Help spur them on and help save lives with a little donation if you can - thank you.

Why are they doing this you ask? Read more 👇 

150 people drown in UK and Irish waters every year. And this summer, thousands of people will get into danger by the water. Ordinary people enjoying days out with family or friends. It happens so easily, and it could happen so easily to one of us or to someone we love.

The RNLI are determined to be there when they're needed most. Usually, RNLI lifesavers answer mayday calls and go to rescue others. But, this May, it's them who are asking for OUR help.

So I'm answering the call by taking part in the Mayday Mile to help make sure these brave lifesavers have the kit and training they need to save lives and keep families safe this summer.
