Over 7000 people call for 24 hour cover to be retained at Falmouth Coastguard

7, 459 people, equivalent to a quarter of the population of Falmouth, have added their names to the Falmouth Packet’s ‘Save our Station’ petition, calling for Falmouth Coastguard to remain open 24 hours a day.   

I will deliver this amazing response, and the strong message from the community it represents, directly to Parliament.

Ministers are listening closely to Falmouth’s clear call for 24 hour cover to be retained as the future shape of the Coastguard service continues to be discussed.
