Like the RNLI, Haven is at the heart of coastal communities. Last spring we began a 3-year partnership to make our coasts safer and help people create happy memories by the sea

Haven runs 40 award-winning holiday parks around England, Scotland and Wales. All of these parks are close to the coast – and that’s not the only connection between Haven and the RNLI.
During early talks with Haven, Tenby Crew Member Chris Thomas helped make the case for us working together – Chris not only serves on the crew, but also works at Haven’s Kiln Park. And Chris isn’t the only member of staff with RNLI links. Other Haven staff also serve at RNLI stations. Ann-Marie Smith from Haven’s HR Team serves on the Thames-based Gravesend crew. ‘I saw the documentary The Cruel Sea
about the Penlee lifeboat disaster. I was so moved at the end of it that I felt a compulsion to be involved in some way,’ she says. ‘People still go: “You’re crew on a lifeboat?” They’re kind of bowled over
by it. But you’ve got to bring them back to earth. We’re just volunteers from the community who go out and do what we do.’ We’re excited to be partnering with Haven too – and we’re thrilled to welcome Haven team members with a passion for saving lives as part of our lifeboat crews. 

The passion of the Haven team can’t be underestimated, and if the RNLI can harness that we can do some great things together’
