## Resource

RNLI volunteers are being told to go low-profile—no branded gear in public—as protests escalate against the lifesaving charity. After footage showed volunteers facing abuse for safely bringing a dinghy ashore, and protesters storming their Poole college, the RNLI is prioritizing staff safety with enhanced security and clear guidance: ditch the uniform if needed, report incidents, and even shut down operations if threatened. One volunteer, Neil, shared he was called a traitor while helping keep protesters safe—highlighting how lifesavers are now targeted instead of thanked. Officials are stepping in to back up the RNLI’s security measures as they respond to mounting hostility. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
