Hi, I am a bus driver commuting to work via paddle board. I travel 2 miles per day between Great Amwell and Ware on the River Lea. I aim to do it on average of 4 days per week from the start of November, till the end of February. that will result in doing a total of 137 miles. I work different shifts, so that means my earliest paddle will be 4am and the latest will be 8pm. and in all weathers too!

I've chosen the RNLI because i've always had a connection to the water in one way or another; I worked on cruise ships many years ago, and lived on a canal boat for a while.

The RNLI save people from absolutely all walks of life, when they find themselves at trouble at sea. There will be scary times on my early morning freezing commutes. But that is nothing compared to being lost out at sea with no sign of help round

Want to join me in making a difference? I’m raising money to benefit RNLI, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

More information about RNLI: The RNLI is a registered charity that saves lives at sea. It provides, on call, a 24-hour lifeboat search and rescue service to 100 miles out from the coast of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland and a beach lifeguard service on over 200 beaches in England. The RNLI continues to rely on voluntary contributions and legacies for its income.
