Project Kraken

We have recently been visited by a member of Special Branch who would like members of Shoreham Sailing Club to be vigilant to activities occurring on our waters.

Project Kraken is a joint initiative now being delivered by the NCA, Border Force and police forces and aims to increase public reporting and strengthen the general maritime industry’s response to the threats.

How you can help

People living, working or partaking in leisure activities on and around the UK’s coastline and waterways are being asked to report suspicious or unusual activity as part of a multi-agency law enforcement campaign.

See information on Sussex Police website: Project Kraken

What should you do?

If you see unusual or suspicious activity, report it to your local police on 101, or anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 and quote ‘Kraken’.

Record as much information as you can – the smallest detail could be significant. Do not take direct action against any individuals or groups.
