Season 3, Episode 4 - Gemma’s story

In the summer of 2020, Gemma endured a near-fatal cycling accident off a 100ft cliff. She has no memory of the accident – but knows that she is alive today thanks to the help of countless volunteers, including RNLI lifeboat crews. 

A rescue that’s out of the water may not be the typical scenario you’d imagine RNLI volunteers to launch to. But their training prepares and equips them for any emergency scenario when the call for help comes. Hear Gemma’s remarkable story, and how she’s still here today, as we return to that cliff to take a windy walk.
