The Coastguard Association Charity
Registered Charity No 279359
Trustees Report for 2024
The Association continued to uphold its goals and maintain our phased strategy of raising the profile of the Association with all stakeholders and in particular those within the senior management of Maritime & Coastguard Agency (MCA). There is an ever growing willingness by various departments of the Senior team in the MCA to support our activities in terms of promoting awareness of the Association amongst their employees and to reinforce our aim of continuing to encourage more engagement from within the Service to interact with the Association further. We are not only engaged in providing financial support, for 2025 we are looking at providing training in peer to peer Mental Health awareness and support. We feel this is particularly current for those working in “blue light” services.
We continued our presence at the Emergency Services Show at the NEC in order to be more visible to our members. Coastline Magazine continues to be a vital part of our mission to inform all stakeholders of our ongoing activities and is our main tool in driving increased membership.
Our Membership Assistance Programme initiative in partnership with a leading service provider, which enables members to access Health and Wellbeing facilities as well as providing other benefits associated with lifestyle preferences is now a permanent feature and is a universal benefit of membership.
The management team continues to add to the building blocks of maintaining sustainability and controlling our expansion with the view to providing a formal base for our activities going forward as part of as drive to make the Association more proactive and dynamic in order to foster further growth. The Association continues to explore and support a variety of local and national fundraising activities. Our reserves are continuing to show strength and growth maintaining our ability to provide the help appropriate to our stated aims.
As described above the management team continues to steer progress and growth in the activities of the Association in order to extend the reach of the assistance we continue to offer our stakeholders.

We are grateful to our loyal supporters and partners without whose efforts much of our aims would not be possible. In line with our policy of providing area support our next Annual General Meeting will be held at the end of March 2025 in Chepstow by local invitation.
