That the Parliament thanks the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) for 200 years of life-saving work; understands that the charity was founded on 4 March 1824 by Sir William Hillary, and that, throughout the past two centuries, it has worked across the UK and Ireland to save lives at sea; recognises that the charity has saved over 140,000 lives since its founding; pays tribute to the RNLI crew who volunteer to face challenging and sometimes dangerous situations, in an act of charity, and in particular to those more than 600 RNLI crew members who have lost their lives in service since 1824; notes the reliance of RNLI on community fundraisers, which play a vital role in the functioning of the organisation; believes that the organisation represents some of the best of the humanitarian spirit in the country, especially in coastal and island communities, and hopes for many more years of bravery and service from RNLI.
