Fundraising

 

All National Coastwatch Stations are required to be self funding and we therefore rely on the efforts of our members to raise the money to keep us afloat. We do this usually by collecting outside supermarkets, street collections and by strategically placed collecting pots that local shops and busineses are kind enough to place in their premises. It takes over £2,000 per annum to keep the station running and we look to all our members to help with fundraising.

About

Currently almost 60 National Coastwatch stations are operational and manned by over 2600 volunteer watchkeepers around the British Isles from Fleetwood in the North West, through Wales, to the South and East of England to Filey in North Yorkshire. 

National Coastwatch watchkeepers provide the eyes and ears along the coast, monitoring radio channels and providing a listening watch in poor visibility. They are trained to deal with emergencies offering a variety of skills and experience, and full training by the National Coastwatch ensures that high standards are met.
