About this episode
Meet the man who has been fundraising for the RNLI for 62 years. At 80, why does he still do it?
When a London Lifeboat Week fundraiser knocked on the door of the Crowden family home, David Crowden’s mother volunteered her 17-year-old son’s services before David could say a word. Hear why it was the beginning of a lifelong commitment to fundraising for the RNLI – and why he’ll never stop.
