RNLI issues appeal for help
The RNLI is issuing its own call for help, appealing for volunteers to help with 'Mayday' - the charity's forthcoming national fundraising event in Ireland - which will be taking place from 1-5 May this year. Last year, RNLI lifeboat crews from Ireland's 44 lifeboat stations launched 1,087 times, rescuing 1,278 people. They are on-call 24/7, every day of the year, ready to respond to emergencies at sea. Anyone interested in getting involved can see what is going on in their area and sign up to volunteer at www.rnli.org/Mayday or call 01 895 1837.
