Tuesday March 15th
We were visited today by the High Sheriff of Lancashire, Mrs Amanda Parker, J.P. – accompanied by her consort. They stayed with us for over an hour, taking a very keen (and obviously genuine) interest in all that we do. They were met by Steve Scholes, Deputy Station Manager, and a number of watchkeepers. The timing was fortuitous in that 2 of the Nautical College students were also present as part of the work experience they are undertaking at the tower. Mrs Parker took time to speak with all of the watchkeepers and the students, and was clearly engaged by everything that she saw and heard about our work at Fleetwood.The High Sheriff left this comment in the visitor book.
“Wonderful work and voluntary commitment. Thank you'”
