Chesil's Search and Rescue Helicopter
Colin the Coastguard with Rocky and Slippy

Hello! My name is Colin and I work as a Coastguard with my dog Rocky, in a coastal village called Tideswell. I have to make sure that people are safe when they are at sea, on the cliffs or on the beach.

Caring for each other and our environment.

There is a lot to explore on my website.

Let’s start by meeting some of my friends. They help me keep people safe.
