⚠️Pictured: what not to do⚠️

Please don’t risk your life for extreme selfies crashing over quays, piers, cliffs & rocks. Huge waves can knock you off your feet & out to sea in an instant

Don’t take risks, but if you do get into trouble, call 999 Coastguard. #StormAlex #BeSafe

Remember Joe & Petunia? We do. And fifty years on, we've made a film which shows how much things have changed in search and rescue apart from one thing... call 999 and ask for the Coastguard. Here it is... #JoeAndPetuniaAre50 #999Coastguard

Already getting some great ideas and insight from @ESCWG999 practitioner day. Use of a project management tool modelled on @jesip999 by @ECFRS staff to engage staff was of real interest! #BetterTogether

Interesting report on the risks and threats arising from GNSS disruption. HM Coastguard are already assessing risk reduction and mitigation measures to ensure it is prepared for such an eventuality.
