Tea and cake

Over the summer starting with easter period the Swanage NCI served tea and cakes to walkers and visitors to Peveril point. This went down very well and all being well should become a regular summer attraction. The tea and cakes have relocated to the information room below the watch.

Swanage at low tide!

Could this be a record? It is certainly a very low tide as the picture below shows. The furthest rocks seen are not normally as prominant as in the photograph

About

Currently 56 NCI stations are operational and manned by over 2600 volunteers keeping watch around the British Isles from Fleetwood in the North West, through Wales, to the South and East of England to Hornsea in the East Riding of Yorkshire. 

NCI 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 NCI ensures that high standards are met.
