Christchurch Quay

Welcome To The MVS Christchurch & Bournemouth Unit

We are based at Christchurch in Dorset and operate within the harbour, it's tributaries and coastal waters. The location provides a wide range of conditions ideal for training and furthering your maritime experience.If you already have practical knowledge or are keen to learn we're always on the lookout for more members. So whatever walk of life you are from please come along and see us. We meet up every Monday evening 7.30pm at Christchurch Fire Station for classroom sessions and at weekends we are out on the water putting training into practice. 

As a member you can also get involved in our activities providing services to the local community.

If you are interested in joining and would like to know more please contact:

MVS Christchurch provides a presence on the water assisting with towing, radio communication, security observations and maritime support at local events such as the Bournemouth Air Festival. We also support the community and emergency services in estuary safety, urban flood rescue and environmental conservation.
