The gift of kindness
From little lifesavers to fully grown lifeboat fans, there’s a membership for everyone. And, with a year-long subscription, it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
Plus, you won’t just be sending a special gift, you’ll also be sending hope to those in danger at sea. That makes you both part of our lifesaving family.
Adult membership
An RNLI membership is a thoughtful present for anyone who loves the seaside. Within 10 working days of signing up, they’ll get a special RNLI member’s pack, including a coastal visit guide, opportunities to get more involved and much more. With your crew aboard, we can save more lives, together.
What's included in an adult membership gift?
Your gift includes a welcome pack - sent straight to your loved one’s home and bringing them closer to our coastal crews. The presentation box contains:
- member’s handbook, for great days out in the UK and Ireland - and an introduction to the RNLI's lifesaving work.
- their first issue of Lifeboat magazine, packed with stories of how their membership saves lives, plus tales of courage from our past
- postcard pack, featuring breathtaking photography, to share your travels
- personalised welcome letter, inviting them aboard and explaining how your kind gift will help save more lives
- membership card, a proud reminder of their loyal support
Plus, a personalised digital certificate to download, print or send to your loved one, welcoming them to the RNLI family.
And your gift doesn’t end there. Your friend or family member will receive Lifeboat magazine four times a year. With our crews on call 24/7 to save lives at sea, you’ll always know that together, you’re part of a force for good.
