Presentation

Our NCI Exmouth Presentation team were invited to talk to the employees at Taking Care Personal Alarms Limited, in Exeter at their Learning at Work week event.

Our Acting Station Manager, John gave an informative talk about our charity and how we are a HMCG asset.

The talk was to their ‘office-based’ employees based at the HQ in Devon, but also to another 15 centers on line throughout the country. A first for us!

Taking Care is a UK-based company that provides 24/7 personal alarms, telecare devices, and smart home monitoring to help elderly and vulnerable individuals live safely and independently.

The company is headquartered in Exeter, Devon and operates by monitoring alarm pendants and wrist buttons. When activated, the devices connect to their UK-based Emergency Resolution Centres.

Thank you for your time and hospitality.

Talks are part of our fundraising efforts as the team relies on donations for over 50% of its funding. If you know a community group who would like to learn about the history of the National Coastwatch Institution, both nationally and locally, and the exciting work of a Watchkeeper, get in touch!

Presentation

We would like to express our thanks to the Trefoil Guild, to whom we gave a presentation to last week.

Trefoil Guild is for those who have been involved in Girl Guiding and is for everyone aged 18 and over. They are a place to find friendship, to get involved in new challenges, or get active in your community and are a place to give support and find comfort. They have a network of members across the UK.

Thank you for your excellent questions, tea & biscuits and your generous donation.

No one in the charity gets paid, not even our Trustee 's and we get no Government funding but instead have to raise our operating costs for NCI Exmouth ourselves. This is achieved through kind donations and presentation events.
