In an emergency at the coast, call 999 or 112 and ask for the coastguard.

Our Legacy and Mission
Saving Lives
When someone dials 999 and the coastguard decides a lifeboat is needed, they call our station’s Launch Authority. If the launch is approved, the crew’s pagers go off and our volunteer crew drop everything to respond. That is what we call a ‘shout.’
