Our Charities

As well as donating raffle prizes to some of our customers’ local charity events, we have chosen to support two charities who play a critical part in ensuring the safety, welfare and livelihood of fishermen and their families. Donation boxes are available in the shop, and we run very successful charity auctions throughout the year.

We personally match every single penny donated by customers and are very proud to know that our fundraising really does make a difference

Fishermans Mission

#TeamFish actively support The Fishermen’s Mission which is the only fishermen’s charity that provides emergency support alongside practical, financial, spiritual and emotional care, helping all fishermen, active or retired and their families. Over many years, Sue & Duncan have helped to raise funds and awareness for this very worthwhile charity and were very proud to be awarded their Outstanding Achievement Award in 2013.

RNLI Penlee Lifeboat Station

Andrew Sevens, our Lobster Fisherman, is one of the 25 volunteer crew members of Penlee RNLI, which is why it’s our second charity and very close to our hearts. Located in Newlyn Harbour, Cornwall Penlee RNLI has a very rich heritage, descended from the first Lifeboat Station in Cornwall and the thirteenth Lifeboat station in the UK. They have 2 lifeboats – an All-Weather Severn Class, ‘The Ivan Ellen’ and an Inshore B-Class Atlantic 85, ‘The Mollie and Ivor Dent’, stationed in 2016. #Team Fish were very lucky to be invited out on the Ivan Ellen in 2017 for a very exciting morning run along the coast.
