Port Erin Coastguard Rescue Team is inviting people to visit its headquarters next week – to get involved in its work.
It’s holding an open evening at its headquarters next to the village’s harbour office opposite the Raglan Pier at 7.30pm on Wednesday, April 17.
Anyone aged between 18 and 50 can volunteer, helping the team deal with everything from pollution incidents to search and rescue operations.
Deputy Station Officer Mark Watterson says with professional training, it’s a very rewarding experience:
