In February 2015 Scarborough lost a great man, Andrew McGeown. Working with the RNLI, AMLF is fundraising to reduce danger at sea along the Yorkshire Coast.

The Andrew McGeown Legacy Fund aims to reduce danger at sea along the Yorkshire Coast by funding programmes and projects that enable us to fulfil our aim and while increasing education surrounding water safety.

Andrew was known as simply 'McGeown' to his friends and his booming voice would so often be accompanied by the hysterical laughter of his peers and whoever was close by. Andrew was a kind, generous, entertainer that was always up for a laugh and this is his legacy. For this reason, wherever possible, the fundraising events are to to be fun days and nights to be remembered that everyone can look forward to. We want McGeown to be remembered by everyone forever with a smile!
