Ports are busy industrial areas, and the health and safety of the people who work in Belfast Harbour is paramount! That’s why it is mandatory for everyone to wear PPE while in Port operational areas👷🦺 #workplacesafety #portsafety #saferport #maritime

Thank you so much to the guys at Chemist Connect, Belfast Central for accommodating the 8 crew members of the THUN LIVERPOOL 🇱🇺 today.

Chemists and pharmacists across the country have played a huge part in the battle against Covid and we would all be lost without them.

A huge thank you to @publichealthni and HSCNI for setting us up with local pharmacies in Belfast, to continue to offer seafarers vital access to vaccines.

A very warm welcome back to the AASHEIM 🇵🇹 and her crew, pictured here at Herdman Channel, Belfast Port.

The Aasheim was launched way back in 2001, but it looks in fine condition.

This vessel is another regular visitor to N.I. but doesn't hang around too long!
