LAST week the Ardrossan Coastguard Rescue Team caught up with Santa as he paid a flying visit over the Three Towns.

And Saint Nick had a very important message to share with everyone over video, wishing all volunteers and all the people who are working over the festive season this year and keeping us safe a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Ardrossan Coastguard Rescue Team is on call 24 hours a day-365 days a year.

In a coastal, beach or cliff emergency always dial 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
