THE Royal National Lifeboat Institute (RNLI) is calling upon Teignbridge residents to support the charity this May.

RNLI Teignmouth volunteers are calling on its supporters to join the 'Mayday Mile' to help raise funds for the charity.

The charity's very own Stormy Stan will be completing a mile each day in May along Teignmouth Seafront.

People can support Stormy Stan's endeavour by going to RNLI Teignmouth's JustGiving page.

Alternatively people can raise funds themselves and walk, hop or skip alongside Stormy Stan or by themselves to complete a mile a day in May.

To sign up for Mayday Mile challenge, visit the Royal National Lifeboat Institute website.
