Each year,thousands of remarkable people provide voluntary donations that enable theRNLIto carry out its work.Many have no direct connection with the sea or maritimehistory,but simply have responded to our call and the bravery of our crews.

Quite naturally,we also lose some of these supporters each year,though a great manyare kind enough to arrange for collections to be made at their final ceremonies.

To mark the magnificent contribution made by these donors we have set up a specialwebsite that celebrates their lives in words and pictures.The website also features crewmembers and other RNLI personnel,who served us on land or sea.Each person's web page has the facilities for visitors to add their memories and makefurther donations direct to us,which means our friends can continue to serve our cause.

If you would like to include a member of your family,or a friend,now passed away,onthis website,please go to rnli.org.uk/rememberalovedoneor contact Nina Stubbs on01202 663591 or email [email protected] SantFred
