In addition to my personal love of food, some other things are close to my heart including sailing, the coast and Dartmouth in particular. I regularly make a donation to the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) whose volunteer crews are always on call; putting their lives on hold to be ready to save lives at a moment’s notice. As I’m keen on boating, to support them to ensure they have the resources they need to do their work.

This year, donations are going toward funding a new Shannon class lifeboat. As part of the relief fleet, the new Shannon will stand in for other boats that need repairs or maintenance around our coasts, where 22 people are rescued every single day.
