THIS MAYDAY Help raise money for the vital kit our crews rely upon

When our brave volunteer crews answer the call for help, they don’t know what they’ll be facing. Huge waves, storms, darkness ... They need to be prepared for anything.

Having the right kit can be the difference between life and death – for them and the people they rescue.
That’s why, this Mayday, we’re asking you to get your yellow on – like our crews do every day to save lives. From yellow-themed dress-down days to whipping up lemon tarts for a bake sale, every penny you raise will go to kitting out our crew.

HELMET
Helmets protect our crews’ heads in rough conditions.

LIFEJACKET

JACKET AND TROUSERS

WELLIES
