NCI Wooltack Point As part of Pembrokeshire search & rescue we assist in the protection & preservation of life at sea & around the UK coastline. RECRUITING NOW

Back in 2009 a group of local volunteers from the National Coastwatch Institution (NCI) reopened the Watch Station at Wooltack Point. Since watches resumed in 2009 over 30,000 vessel movements have been logged and 28 incidents reported to Milford Haven Coast Guard during the 10,000 man hours of watches. The area over seen from the Watch Station includes most of St Brides Bay, Jack Sound, Skomer, Skokholm and the approaches to Milford Haven. We are actively recruiting Volunteers so that the number of watches can be increased. No previous experience is needed as training is organised locally in all of the skills needed to keep watch and log what is seen. The crew are looking forward to a busy season helping to make this hazardous stretch of coast safer for those at sea and on foot. The Watch Station is funded solely by donations and the fund raising efforts of the crew. Please help if you can. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/wooltackpoint/
