HM Coastguard
Her Majesty’s Coastguard coordinates maritime search and rescue within the UK Search and Rescue region, and have a variety of resources they can task to emergency situations involving people in distress at sea, or emergencies on the coast or shoreline. Watch keeping staff in these centres provide a 24 hour service to mariners and coastal users by receiving incoming distress calls and sending resources to their rescue. These calls could come in via the monitoring of emergency radio frequencies, or by 999 calls, as the Coastguard are one of the four emergency services in the UK.

HM Coastguard also has their own volunteer service, the Coastguard Rescue Service, which are teams of volunteers who can respond to land based emergencies such as cliff and mud rescues or searches for missing people.
