Emergency on the River?
Dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard
Humber Rescue is an independent charity that supplies fast response search and rescue operations on the Humber Estuary. We cover approximately 540 square miles of water including the River Hull, Trent, Ouse and the River Humber.
The River Humber has proven to be one of the most unpredictable stretches of water in the world. Even the most experienced of navigators can get caught out by the shifting sandbanks and strong currents.
