A 3-Mast Mission

Our Mission to Raise Awareness of this Historic Battle is 3-Masted:-

1.Education & Outreach for All Ages –  to work with groups, businesses and organisations to build and encourage a sense of pride of place in local heritage and culture, health and well-being along the 1779 Heritage Coast from Bridlington to Scarborough.

2. Annual Festival – to build and promote local tourism along the coast through education and experiences of the Battle of Flamborough Head culminating with the 250th Anniversary in 2029.

3. Legacy – To create a 1779 Heritage Trail and Monument for future generations to enjoy and remember this period of history.
