Founded in 1824, the RNLI is a unique charity. Funded by
public donations, it provides a 24/7 search and rescue service around the
coastlines of the UK and Republic of Ireland. It designs and builds its own
lifeboats, and the vast majority of its lifeboat crew members are volunteers
- ordinary people from all walks of life who give up their time to help
others.
As well as lifeboats, the RNLI provides a beach lifeguard
service. The charity also works to improve water safety through education
and awareness campaigns, as well as sharing its expertise with life-saving
