Over 3000 (3117) 1 -2 -1 Interactions in 2022
This is made up of:
1059 at events and 1958 on beaches, harbours, slipways etc.
We also checked over 200 lifejackets despite the new restrictions.
Our focus on beaches, manual craft of all types including SUPs and swimming hopefully made a difference to folks behaviour.
It’s going to be a hard act to follow in 2023!
