The RNLI is the charity that saves lives at sea. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, lifeboat crews around the UK and Ireland are ready to launch to help those in need. Whether you're stuck on a sinking ship, cut off by a rapidly rising tide, or in the water and close to drowning, RNLI crew members will drop everything to come to your rescue. 95% of RNLI lifeboat crews and station staff are volunteers.
But it’s not just lifeboats. RNLI lifeguards patrol 248 beaches across the UK and Channel Islands, keeping people safe, providing safety advice and rescuing those in trouble. Education volunteers visit schools and swimming clubs to help teach the next generation how to enjoy the water safely. And volunteer fundraisers and shop workers give up their time to generate vital funds. The RNLI is also working to help communities around the world that are most at risk of drowning.
If you spot someone in trouble in the water, call 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard.

@@rnli what area do yore team cover all over the UK RNLI do a fantastic job but the British coats guard is the one's that should be sent out in Dover area and collect small boats then take straight back to France 🇬🇧
@@rnli PS Your shameful PR video gets a thumbs down.
@@paulwilson9763 That is the Border Force's job, the Coast Guard is a land based organisation (I think you are confusing them with the US Coast Guard). Those small boats and occupants can't be taken back to France, the French won't accept them because that would break European law and the French would be fined.
@@deathcabforcutie3889 You have a poor understanding of what the RNLI does and of the law. The RNLI exists to save lives at sea, all lives. Under the laws of the sea you must help those in distress. The Border Force exists to pick up those that are attempting to cross the Channel unlawfully, but there are occasions when they are overwhelmed by the numbers of small boats. They then call on the assistance of nearby vessels including the RNLI to help those in distress. They cannot and would not leave those people to drown. The activities of the lifeboat crews is not unlawful in any way. It would only become unlawful if a lifeboat crew took backhanders off criminals to go and pick up people off French beaches, which is something that has never happened and would never happen. Perhaps YOU might like to apologise to the RNLI for your stupidity and racism. The lifeboat crews are 95% unpaid volunteers who put their lives on the line every time they go out on a shout.
A Big Thank You to all RNLI volunteers who selflessly put their lives on the line to go to the aid of their fellow men.
Thanks for your kind words and support, Keith 🧡
RNLI taxi service for illegal invaders.
Crews are best of the best !
We couldn't agree more!
4'05" Coming alongside a person in the surf. Possibly the sweetest piece of boat handling I have ever seen - and I've seen plenty
Thanks Sierra 💙
Absolutely total respect for the bravery of these saviours.
Thanks for your kind words and support, Peter 💛
Congratulations for all lifeguards, greetigs from Brazilian Shipspotter.
.....God bless you guys....much love and respect for all you do from Scarborough
Thank you!
Hero's
From the young lady on a Pembrokeshire beach who captured my interest and desire to support and every other wonderful person at the RNLI....
Amazing! The skill and dedication of those lifeguards is always incredible.
Thanks for your kind words and support, Matt 💛
Absolutely fudging amazing, mydarlings!
You're Absolutely incredible!❤
Thank you Claire, your support means so much to us 💛
It’s about time these crews are given full time jobs and get the respect and the pay they rightly deserve ❤️
I can honestly say as a RNLI volunteer of 21 years that although it would be great to do it as a full time paid employee (of which there are quite a few) I prefer the volunteer way.
Thank you for everything you do for us Brian, we are so grateful to have volunteers like you 💙
They getting payed of priti petal nowadays.
Astonishing. Utterly brilliant skill in the most atrocious conditions. And all are volunteers.

Almost all are volunteers. There are some paid crew, and of course some non-seagoing positions within the RNLI.
@@AndyCutright Yes of course! I should have said "practically all crew members are volunteers".
RNLI: the best… angels in a world with few left. 👍
You're doing a great job. Thank you so much🙏💝
Thanks for your kind words and support Manfred, it really means a lot 🧡
The crews who brave these conditions to save others are real hero’s. However what about the boats they use ,they work in worst of weather, the design and build are also second to none, nothing less than the crews deserve. I think these teams also deserve our thanks.
Well done to you guys what you do is amazing keep up the good work and hopefully I’ll be apart of this amazing service in the future
Speaking of which Padstow lifeboat has just been scrambled at 15:23
@@padstowmade more dinghys on way here then 👎
Thanks for your kind words and support 💛
Keep up the magnificent work folks, you are all fantastic... Please set up a patron page so that we can donate more effectively...
This is my checklist for going out to surf - if the answer to any of them is "yes", I dont go out:
Is the Onshore wind more than 30 mph?
Is the swell (feet) higher than the period (seconds)?
When I stand at the water's edge, do I have any doubt about my ability vs conditions?
Bravo !!!!!!!!!
Excellent work🇬🇧👍
Thanks for your support 🧡
@@rnli your welcome sir keep you great work and thank you to you all putting your life on the line stupid people.your the Best 👍👋🇬🇧
Can you do a video about Macduff lifeboat
We've passed your suggestion on to the team! Macduff Lifeboat Station have a B class lifeboat, you can find out more about this boat here: rnli.social/3BuaIW5
Brilliant , well done you brave boys and girls
Thanks for your support, Harry 💙
Does the RNLI keep a record of launches and numbers of migrants they have rescued crossing the channel and do these launches and rescues get added to the records published on your website. Is the RNLI receiving payments from HM Gov for their work in assisting Border Force (because they should do)
No, it is all public donation - because it keeps that direct connection. Simon’s GoFundMe page is doing very well - over £110k raised in a week.
The RNLI does not ask to see immigration status before they pull people out of the sea. Only a heartless psychopath would think that was a good idea. They get no government money.
Total respect to the lifeboat crews, but most of these rescues were surfers, surely there is no need to go out in conditions which warrant rescue by the lifeboat..!!
The RNLI is not funded by government and in modern times that's a real blessing. When the service is criticised for being a 'taxi service for immigrants', it's a sign of our times that unfortunately, in some people's heads, politics, ego and racism have a higher value than human life. Many thanks to all the RNLI teams for giving freely of their time and often risking their own lives to save others. Who'd want to be an ill informed, biased, populist politician when you can do something meaningful in life. Good job teams.
Good to see rnli doing what they are there for respect to them they do a great job,however I don't like to see them bieng treat as a taxi service
Lifeboat volunteers are actual angels in orange
Thank you Joe 💛
What are all those shed looking shacks on shore??
The beach huts?
Hi Jon, we think you may be referring to the beach huts.
It looks like it couldn't fit more than a single bed... I just can't imagine that many people crowded in huts together.
Jon Merson You're correct. Most people store beach toys, deck chairs and clothes in them, maybe with a kettle and sometimes a fridge.
@@jonmerson2421 people don't live in them, they're used for storage, or for a bit of weather protection when it rains etc. They might have a couple of deckchairs, a small table & kettle - just enough to make things comfortable when the weather closes in.
👏👏👏🤘😘
I feel this is in response to Nigel Farage. No one in their right mind is denying the outstanding job these volunteers do. As a sailor and diver I've seen them in action and rely on them greatly.
Heroic people. Its sad to see them being criticised by ever-growing elements of the extreme right Xenophobic English media. The same people that were inexplicably criticising the RNLI for saving lives last week have this week decided to start ridiculing climate change scientists and researchers. The weeks before that it was anti-lockdown, anti-vaccine, anti-mask etc...
The argument was that if they were out helping immigrants who made their own decision to cross the channel and say a child from somewhere that was in the area they would be called to do a rescue drowned because they weren’t available how would that go down?
@@richardallen503 I agree. Nigel Farage wasn't criticising the RNLI he was just saying they were being used as a taxi service, a free taxi service
@@keithlittlebury2986 I hope he carries talking his bigoted crap, as the RNLI has seen a massive increase in donations since his speech..Most British people don't wish to see refugees drown in the channel.
For crying out loud, why don't people check tide times BEFORE going out into the sea or onto beaches, there's plenty of tide info available online, or if they haven't got net access then they can get a little booklet from Laver's, they're available by mail order for different areas around the UK and I used to use them. And they should also always check marine weather forecasts beforehand too, then they can make a more safely informed decision and save the rescue crews from having to risk their lives when it's preventable. Use some common sense!
Are you watching Farage?
Knob
@@davetowers6100 so you would rather people just drowned Adolf?
@@Hu4est why yes, actually, Stalin.
Though in typical communist fashion i supposed you would come up with a doublespeak term
I watch Farage all the time, he is excellent. Farage lead a massive fundraiser for the RNLI back in the day. I doubt he would ever do that again, I will never donate to the RNLI again either. It has just become some political thing that I do not recognise.
Farage backed down when he realised that overall his criticism of the RNLI wasn't going down too well with the UK public, apart from the usual fcuking idiots. He has decided to ridicule and shout at climate change scientists and commentators this week. Next week he'll probably be ridiculing the Dalai Lama.
♥️♥️♥️The RNLI♥️♥️♥️. True heroes🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you, Debs 💙
Amazing! just pitty can't read white writing with white waves behind it.
Thanks for the feedback Elliot.
Awesome boat handling! These volunteers should get paid for every rescue they perform, but the UK takes advantage of them. Isn't Socialism wonderful?
Are all words magic to you? Or just those like 'socialism?' If this is socialism, so is a church with a soup kitchen. It's primarily volunteers giving of their own time, funded by millions of folks giving freely of their money. No one is coerced. Nothing is taken.
I imagine too, lots of businesses and individuals make money supplying services and goods to the RNLI. Seems awfully far afield of that boogieman 'socialism.' Someone has to be paid to build those boats. Those radios don't assemble themselves. Someone has to create all that gear the RNLI team. From their helmets right down to their boots, I imagine a lot of capitalists are making a fair, reasonable profit supplying the RNLI.
Scuttle back under your wharf, troll. We know what words really mean, and how things really work.
Along with respect we need to support this with donations
@@paulwilson9763 They are not a taxi service you moron. They are there to save lives, that is their only purpose. They pick people up when the Border Force is overwhelmed by the numbers of small boats attempting illegal crossings or would you prefer if some people were just left to drown?
@@stevebarlow3154 Having read many of his rants, I'm afraid that he and his allies probably would.
These people are life savers not immigrant escorts.
rolandrimann. Unfortunately they are both though at the moment, aren’t they?
I like to see Mr Farage out in those seas. I am increasing my regular donations to the RNLI.
Maby u can donate to the public purse to feed and house the migrants in there boats coming here
@@paulwilson9763 I do and have done for the last 70 years. Johnson and his tax dodging friends of course won't be making their contribution to anything. Except to destroying your country.
As a tax payer I take it you mean well its not just the tory mp's who are raking it in all the mp's are silent as britain go's deeper into debt no mp from any party as denounced the billions wasted the only country' thats done things right theve built hospital's infrastructure is China who caused this mess no votes for any party from now on 🇬🇧
@@deathcabforcutie3889 well I am sorry that you feel that way. But rest assured that despite your feelings, should you or Farage get in to difficulty at sea, the RNLI volunteers will put their own lives at risk to help you.
@@deathcabforcutie3889 Don't talk rubbish, the RNLI's activities are not illegal in any way. They exist to save lives at sea, all lives.
PR offensive
RNLI are true hero's. Unlike Nigel farage
Heroes every man jack of them.
BUT, I do not approve of the RNLI acting as a ferry service for immigrants. They've all passed through perfectly safe countries, why are they hell bent on getting to this one and why are we helping them? We should pick them up and return them to France.
Well said totally agree we wouldent know this was happening if 1 person dident gave to guts to tell us all stop giving France millions as all they do is escort into uk waters then call up saying can u collect my answer would be no ur nearer them bye 🇬🇧
Yes unfortunately the RNLI has entered into the world of politics . The saving lives at sea code is sacred and if a mayday call is put out then its their duty and courage that sends them out . The French and British govt have a lot to answer for
We can't return the illegal immigrants to France, they won't accept them. It is illegal under European law and France would be fined if it did so. The RNLI is not providing a ferry service, they are preventing people from drowning. That is somewhat different.
@@stevebarlow3154 What is the role of the French Navy accompanying the migrants boats? Yet RNLI travel 11 - 20 miles to "rescue" when the French Navy is a few hundred feet away. If you lived in London and your house caught fire you wouldn't want the fire engine to come from Glascow would you. The reason is they DECLINE the French Navy for RNLI to take them to the UKL for benefits. Hence you are the preferred taxi of choice.
@@steveparker7164 Once the migrant boat is in the water the French Navy cannot legally do anything but escort that boat to the start of British waters. The only way for the French to legally stop any migrants is to catch them in the act of launching a boat. But there is a hundred miles of coastline to patrol, so that is easier said than done. The reason Britain is the destination of choice for some migrants is that they tend to be English speakers and often have relatives living in the UK. Most illegal immigrants are not eligible for any State benefits, nor are they allowed to work. At best they will be dumped in some cheap bed and breakfast hotel and given three mediocre meals per day. That's not a lifestyle I'd choose.
Good to see there doing there job & not a taxi service for illegal sewer rats 🐀 !
I don't think the RNLI rescues rats, it's mainly people.
Taking a break from delivering illegal immigrants to our shores. Someone decided the RNLI needs an image boost.
That's exactly what I thought.
The RNLI exists to save lives at sea, all lives. Or do you think we should let some people drown crossing the Channel, people with a darker skin colour than you perhaps?
How did you vote boomer?
@@stevebarlow3154 Yes. Brits take priority over illegal economic migrants. Easy answer.
@@stoufer2000 on the winning side, commie loser!
Who, are the 5 people , at time of writing, that gave this a thumbs down? At what point in our evolution did watching brave professionalisms dedicated individuals, performing acts of true bravery become something that annoys or upsets or you? Get some perspective on life you quaterwits!
Faragists & Daily Heil readers
Real people who know brave men and women being used as scapegoats they would be more respected if took them back to France 🇬🇧
@@paulwilson9763 MORE respected! MORE respected! Just turning out in those conditions DEMANDS respect. It's people like you who shows a lack of respect and understanding for the job the crews do. They save lives without favour. They do the job to save life, NOT to make political decisions on the rights and wrongs of the circumstances of those in danger. You truly show your true colours if you think they should indulge in petty political gestures. Grow up!
Over 3500 likes for fararge telling the truths about public funded RNLI only people like you that can not take real facts of life that the RNLI are being used as puppets by the French who escorts them into uk waters if we stop picking them up they might stop coming there not in the water there in boats Dover RNLI all so know as free taxi service 🇬🇧
@@stetomlinson3146 I agree with most of what u say except the French navy watch these boats into our waters uk pay France to stop this but RNLI get told to pick them up for uk border force if any 1 should pick them up its uk border force not RNLI but uk should take back to France as they are surpose to claim asylam in the 1st safe country they get to guss what that's not the UK 🇬🇧
This is what normal people support by giving donations but not for being a taxi service for people in boats that the French help into uk waters then tell our end to collect them no donations from me till that taxi service fully stops make the French patrol boats collect them in French waters 🇬🇧
