The Watch Ashore in Humber

The Humber Branch of the Watch Ashore was founded in 1947 and celebrated its 60th Anniversary in 2007 with a dinner attended by Sue Vickery, the National Chairman of the Watch Ashore. The guest speaker was Christine Barker of Radio Humberside’s “Making Waves Appeal” for the local lifeboats.

We are looking forward to hosting the next National Triennial meeting in May 2009, having acted as host on two previous occasions.

Meetings

Meetings are held at 7.30pm most Tuesday evenings throughout the year, except during August. Our meeting place is the Mark Kirby Room at the rear of St Mary’s Church, Cottingham and can be accessed via Kingtree Avenue/Arlington Avenue. We have varied speakers, slide shows and demonstrations, and are also fortunate enough to have some members who kindly open their homes for coffee evenings. During the summer evenings we have visits to local places of interest.

Membership

Membership costs £10 per annum for the National and £10 per annum for the Branch. Meetings cost £3.00 per week and this includes tea/coffee and biscuits.

New members are welcome.
