The Royal National Lifeboat Institution provide, on call, a 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue service around the coast of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland.
We also provide a seasonal lifeguard service on over 200 beaches in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Jersey.
The RNLI lifeboat service in the UK receives no Government funding and relies entirely on voluntary contributions to save lives at sea.

From our volunteers and supporters to our scientists, doctors and nurses, we're all here to save more lives by preventing, controlling and curing all cancers. Together, we're leading the world in discovering and developing newer, kinder treatments and getting closer to cures. As a result we've helped double survival rates in just 40 years.
But we can't stop there. Every two minutes someone in the UK is diagnosed with cancer and this statistic is getting worse. We don't receive Government funding for our research, so every step towards beating cancer relies on every pound donated. Research saves lives and our work is critical to ensuring more people beat this devastating disease.
Sooner or later we will find a way to cure all cancers. Let's make it sooner
