The facts behind our work in the Channel.
In 2024, our crews launched 114 times to Channel crossings – that's just 1.2% of our total launches.
Our core purpose is to save lives at sea. Anyone can drown, but no one should.

Ah dear, it looks like you’re believing lots of misinformation! We can’t be fined as we’re tasked by the government (HM Coastguard) to assist those in trouble in the water. Our crews aren't criminals. They are lifesavers.
What a game, what a night! 🏴🏴
Whether this is your first since ’98, or your first ever – enjoy this moment Scotland supporters 🙌
This one’s for you 🏴

I’m looking to recruit a Regional Communications Manager to join my team on a temp contract.
This is an exciting and rewarding role, supporting over 50 communications volunteers around the coast of Scotland in promoting the lifesaving work of the RNLI.

Last week, volunteer lifeboat crews assisted in a major incident following the collision of two vessels off the coast of #EastYorkshire.
Thank you to our @BridlingtonRNLI, @HumberLifeboat, @RNLImablethorpe, @RNLIskegness and Cleethorpes RNLI volunteers who answered the call 💛

It’s time to announce our Emergency Service Award… Hewitt Clark, it’s much deserved! 🏅🚤
Awarded by Graeme Souness and Moira Stuart, Hewitt is Britain’s most dedicated lifeboatman, having saved 319 lives over 35 years with the @RNLI.

We're so proud of former volunteer, Hewitt Clark!
Nominated on behalf of the RNLI for the @PrideOfBritain This Morning Emergency Services Award, Hewitt was awarded a Gold Medal for his gallantry during the 1997 Green Lily rescue mission and is an inspiration to us all 🌊🎖️
