Over £50 000 was raised at the International Marine Contractors Association (IMCA) Midsummer Charity Ball held in Aberdeen on Friday 20 June. This, and other resources set aside by the international trade association, forms the launch pad for IMCAre, a new international educational support fund.

海角吃瓜网淭he marine contracting industry constantly strives for ever-greater safety levels. This is, after all, what IMCA guidance, safety flashes and safety promotion material is all about, coupled with the industry海角吃瓜网檚 determination to aim for 海角吃瓜网榸ero incidents ,海角吃瓜网� explains IMCA海角吃瓜网檚 Chief Executive, Chris Charman.

海角吃瓜网淩egrettably however incidents do still occur around the world, and we believe the marine contracting sector should provide support and assistance to those affected, particularly for families and communities where accidents to breadwinners can have significant impacts and serious consequences.

海角吃瓜网淚MCA海角吃瓜网檚 Council and Overall Management Committee decided that rather than simply providing money, it would be much more in keeping with the aims and goals of our association to provide funds to support education 海角吃瓜网� and thus the ability to add longer term value to those families and communities affected by a tragedy.

海角吃瓜网淚MCAre was born from this idea,海角吃瓜网� he says. 海角吃瓜网淲e are asking our Sections around the world - Asia-Pacific, Europe & Africa, Central & North America, Middle East & India, and South America - to identify deserving causes in their region and submit proposals to the IMCA Council and Overall Management Committee for an allocation of funds. Monies will then be passed to those sections for distribution to the families, communities, schools, or training centres 海角吃瓜网� wherever we believe we can provide the most educational impact.

海角吃瓜网淣aturally we will expect the relevant section to remain involved with their projects to mentor, monitor and manage them in order to ensure the best outcomes.海角吃瓜网�
