Memorial

Yesterday the team were invited to Peveril Point and the unveiling of a plaque to the late Ian Surface.

Ian was the station Manager of the National Coastwatch at Swanage, after serving in the Coastguard for 30 years. During his Service to the town Ian was awarded a B.E.M (British Empire Medal) for his work.  After 30 years, finishing as the Auxiliary in Charge - Ian went on to rebuild the lookout at Peveril and continue the good work from the lookout.

Whilst a sad day it was nice to be part of such an event to mark Ian's commitment to the town.
