This evening, Skerries Coast Guard accepted an invitation from Skerries Fire Brigade to visit their new Fire Station building at Dublin Road, in Skerries. The Coast Guard team were given a tour of the new state of the art facilities and a brief on the emergency equipment and technical capabilities of Skerries Fire Brigade.

The station is undergoing some minor completion works and the official opening will be held later in the year. Many thanks to Skerries Fire Brigade for this extremely informative visit. Some photos of the visit will be posted to our online gallery shortly.

Remember – if you spot anyone in difficulty along the coast or cliffs, dial 999 or 112 and ask for the COAST GUARD. Your call could save their life.
