The BBC reports on the RNLI’s latest rescue statistics, revealing that more than 100 people were saved from small boats in the English Channel in 2022.  

With increasing numbers of dangerous crossings, the RNLI has turned to FunAir to provide new technology to improve rescue efficiency and safety. 

A key development featured in the BBC article is the introduction of new lifesaving equipment, including the FunAir Rescue SeaStairs, developed in partnership between FunAir and RNLI.  

This cutting-edge inflatable system allows lifeboat crews to retrieve people from the water more quickly and safely than ever before, significantly improving rescue response times, and improving crew safety.  

The FunAir-engineered solution has been rigorously tested and endorsed by the RNLI, reinforcing the brand’s expertise in maritime safety innovation. 

The BBC report also emphasizes the RNLI’s humanitarian mission, the challenges faced by volunteer crews, and the importance of public support in funding its operations. 

As the manufacturer of the RNLI-endorsed Rescue SeaStairs, FunAir’s contribution to maritime safety and rescue technology further establishes its industry leadership.
