The event raises money for The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI), a worthy charity that saves lives at sea around the coasts of the British Isles, as well as inshore. It was founded on 4 March 1824 as the National Institution for the Preservation of Life from Shipwreck, adopting the present name in 1854.
The RNLI operates over 230 lifeboat stations around the coasts of the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. Since 1980, lifeboat rescues have doubled; the RNLI rescues an average of 22 people each day.
The charity also employs lifeguards on beaches in southwest England, south Wales and Norfolk. In 2008, this service will be expanded to cover over 100 beaches.
The RNLI is funded entirely by voluntary donations and legacies (together with tax reclaims), and has an annual budget of £130 million.
