Dartmouth Caring


Dartmouth caring has grown and developed in the last few years and in addition to their transport service and Lunch Club they now have several monthly support groups such as the Memory Café, the Visually Impaired Reading Group, and a new Parkinson’s Café. The charity still offers its mainstay business of advice and support, home visits, befriend- ing and shopping, assistance with everyday difficulties and benefit applications. The importance of their services are never underestimated by their users, and the services remain imperative to the charity and continue to grow. The charity continues with two very important components: the volunteers who are crucial to the work in the community and also to all the supportive groups, businesses and associations that donate funds to them. The charity relies on such funding to achieve its work.


Dart Music Festival


We are proud of our continuing involvement with this major event in the social and cul- tural life of Dartmouth. Musicians both home grown and from all around the country and the world come to Dartmouth to entertain a huge number of locals and visitors in a wide variety of musical styles and venues.


National Coastwatch


The National Coastwatch keeps a visual watch on waters around the United Kingdom from 46 locations including Froward Point at the mouth of the Dart. The importance of this voluntary organisation cannot be emphasised too much. As they say: ‘a computer cannot spot a distress flare, an overturned boat or a yachtsman or fisherman in trouble.’


As a marina we are very keen on sponsoring events at sea or on the river:


Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta As well as being general sponsors of the Regatta we also sponsor the Joint Regatta Sailing Committee’s Regatta Costal Race in which sailing yachts battle it out along the length of the Start Bay shore.


Dartmouth Shakespeare Week


We are very glad to continue supporting Dartmouth Shake- speare Week. Now in its tenth year, the Inn Theatre Company (a troupe of South Devon locals) present the Shakespeare Week every year in August when they perform Shakespeare’s plays in the grounds of Dartmouth Castle. This year the Company will be celebrating their decade by returning to the first play that they performed, returning to the Bard’s comedies with ‘Twelfth Night’.
