Four-year-old raises money for RNLI

At only four years old, Isabelle Russell has become one of the RNLI's most prolific money raisers.

Izzy's interest in the charity was sparked by her dad, Adam, who is a volunteer lifeboat crew member at Fowey, Cornwall, and her mum, Jodie Keller, manager of its gift shop. Last year Izzy raised £121 selling loom band bracelets (in orange and blue of course) then in May she sold £93 worth of pin badges and recently, she did a bucket collection, bringing her total raised so far to £360.27. And she's not done yet; Izzy is busy making beaded keyrings to sell on Lifeboat Day at the end of this month.
