**The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) is recruiting around 160 face-to-
face fundraisers for paid roles around the UK’s and Ireland’s coast.**

F2F fundraisers help the lifesaving charity reach thousands of people every year,
with two core activities. They **share important water safety messages** with beachgoers
and visitors to some of the summer’s most popular events. They also help the RNLI
continue its lifesaving service by **encouraging new supporters to sign up and donate**.

Fundraisers receive “full, high-quality training and competitive rates of pay”, 
according to the RNLI, whilst also developing valuable professional and personal
skills.

**Lucy Hampson**, Senior Face-to-Face Fundraising Manager at the RNLI, said:

> “Being a face-to-face fundraiser is a rewarding role; it is vital in helping to
> raise funds to support the RNLI’s lifesaving work and in delivering important 
> water safety advice to those visiting the coast. If you’re friendly, approachable,
> and interested in helping to share safety advice with thousands of beach visitors,
> it could be just the role for you”.

She added: “I’d encourage anyone, no matter what career you are considering, to 
take up the challenge and apply for a role today.”
