St Donat's Bay: Volunteer to be a National Coastwatch Institution (NCI) Watchkeeper based at UWC Atlantic College

 

VOLUNTEER TO BE A NATIONAL COASTWATCH INSTITUTION (NCI) WATCHKEEPER AT ST DONAT’S BAY

NCI St Donat’s Bay is keeping a special lookout this summer – searching for the next intake of volunteer watchkeepers.

The station, based at UWC Atlantic near Llantwit Major, is the eyes and ears along the coast to help keep people safe. Working with search and rescue teams including the RNLI and HM Coastguard, NCI St Donat’s is crewed by a team of volunteers from the local community, staff and students from the College.

Open during daylight hours, it’s aiming to expand to 7 days a week with the help of more volunteer crew. New recruits will receive full training in nautical knowledge, search and rescue protocols and a range of skills required to meet the high standards of HM Coastguard and the RYA.
