perranporth surf life saving club
Through an official crowdfunding campaign, we are trying to raise £10,000 so we
can install solar panels. This will reduce our carbon footprint and fuel costs –
so we can focus on training lifeguards and beach safety. Did you know our
volunteers provided 500+ hours of beach and water safety cover in
2022,Crowdfunding this project builds wider community support for the club and
provides us the opportunity to access further match funds to the project. We
have been in discussion with Cornwall Council who are looking to support this
project as part of their work supporting communities to reach net zero by 2030,
and installing renewable energy in the county. In the long term, all these
measures will help reduce our energy costs and improve the operation of the
clubhouse, meaning we can focus more of our efforts on future activities for the
community – supporting health and wellbeing, developing life saving skills, and
awareness of the beach coastal environment.
