When the storm hits you at sea. When you are in need. When it is a matter of seconds. Our sea rescuers will set out with only one goal in mind: To save lives.
Saving lives is the core of everything we do in Redningsselskapet. It has been that way ever since our first rescue boat were launched in 1893.
None shall drown
Over 125 years later we are proud to have saved over 6,400 lives. Every year we teach 30,000 children and young people good boating skills and seamanship. But we are far from reaching our goal. Annually over 100 people drown in Norway. Globally 400 000 people drown every year.
