Team working

10 years ago you could visit stations all around the coast and the cliff work would be done slightly differently....

Today that does'nt happen, it shouldnt matter where you are in the country the rope work will now be the same.

The Coastguard has really changed in the last year and this is a credit not only to the teams but also the management in supplying the equipment and training us.

We are very fortunate to have a very forward thinking Sector Manager who has supported us very well, help drive through plans for a new station, get us extra equipment and basically been there for us in some "dark" moments.

Being a Sector Manager is a thankless task, locally he has four teams, normally about 48 team members all who have their opinions, however somehow he manages to channel most of opinions into the way the Coastguard want things done today.

Well thanks boss, we are grateful !
