I was going to compose some kind of post to celebrate Sue's Mayday Mile accomplishment - an amazing feat.. But I think this post from her own page says it much more eloquently than I ever could!

" Completed! 🥳 I've power walked each and every day in May. Last night, returning from the theatre, I realised that I was just 1.88 miles (3.02 km) off doing 93 miles – average 3 miles a day. I took on this challenge for a cause I wholeheartedly believe in, and in memory of my dad who was a huge supporter. He always encouraged us to go the extra mile…. So that last walk, finishing just before midnight on 31st was for you dad!! 🐞
No yellow wellies for me, just a range of footwear for the weather and location. I can’t walk in the wellies of our brave volunteer crews, but I’ve done the Mayday Mile Challenge to raise funds to support them. Your very kind donations are very much appreciated and will ensure that our crews can get the training and kit that they need to stay safe while they are saving every life they can at sea. THANK YOU 💜💜💜
If you haven’t donated yet, but would like to support my efforts/RNLI, there’s still time… here’s the link to my fundraising page: https://fundraise.rnli.org/fundraisers/susanmorrow-jones See less

It may have been a mixed blessing to have our Mayday coffee and cake afternoon on the same day as the Lichfield Food Festival as our footfall was a bit less than usual. BUT we made over £300.00 thanks to our lovely visitors - and retail sales by Jane (pictured below). Heartfelt thanks to all the volunteers who manned the various stalls - jigsaws, plants, cakes etc., and, of course, our visitors who dropped in to say hello. We're grateful also to Stormy Stan for making time in his busy schedule to drop by!!

She's almost made it!! Here's the latest report from Secretary Sue on her Mayday Challenge. "Two weeks and 45 miles into the challenge, and I'm finally by the coast! Visited Hartlepool RNLI, met some of the fantastic crew and was shown around their ILB 'Solihull' and ALB Shannon 'John Sharp' by Visits Officer Jimmy. Thanks all, and stay safe! Doing my walks along the promenade at Seaton Carew, where a good chunk of the beach has been sectioned off for nesting Terns.
There's still time to donate to my Mayday Challenge @ http://fundraise.rnli.org/.../susanmorrow-jones/mayday-mile"
We're so proud of you Sue, very well done.

A Mayday Challenge update from our heroine, Sue. "First week down - 7 walks done.I've done a 'power walk' each day, and have clocked up 25.5 miles so far. Not as many miles as others I'm sure, but a dedicated effort, and at least a mile per day.
I’m missing my walk buddy Tag, who has now gone back home, but I must admit I walk faster without him ". Well done Sue, looks like you'll complete the challenge in record time!

An update from our Secretary, Sue, who's currently tackling the Mayday Challenge this month. The idea is that you walk one mile a day for the whole of May but Sue is obviously keen to get cracking! Here's the comment she sent along with the photograph:
"Nowhere near the coast - we're in the middle of the country! My walking buddy, Tag, kept us going for over 6 miles today. Tag's an RNLI supporter too!" Well done both and we'll look forward to more lovely photos.

We're over the moon, ecstatic and lots more besides! Our 2 day collection event at Tesco Express, Lichfield on 24th & 25th of April raised the phenomenal sum of almost £1000. Thank you so much to everyone involved - Tesco Express for permission to collect; the kind, generous shoppers who gave readily and last, but certainly not least, our loyal band of volunteers who gave up their time.

Please put Saturday the 16th of May in your diaries for our Mayday event in Lichfield Methodist Church, 1.00 - 3.00 p.m. Lots to buy, cakes and coffee to enjoy, and you'll be supporting such a worthwhile cause. See poster for further details and we'll see you there! Oh and don't forget, there's still time to support our intrepid Secretary & Water Safety Advisor, Sue, who's taking up the Mayday challenge - a mile a day for the whole month of May. See earlier post for details how to donate. We'll let you know how she gets on.
