FISH, Fishermen in Sculptural Heritage Registered charity number 1135142, was set up in 2007 to raise money for a statue to celebrate the fishing heritage of Brixham. It is the mother port of trawling and has links with many fishing ports around the world. From the time that the famous red sails began to appear until the present day fishermen have pitted themselves against the sea to bring home the silver harvest. Tales of heroism and loss are many down through the years, from man overboard to wrecks to miraculous rescues in great storms. Fishing continues to be at the heart and mainstay of this trusty harbour town and trawler race day is one of the most public faces of this. The statue will celebrate and commemorate those who were lost or buried at sea, their families, their heritage and their home port, Brixham. The 3m bronze statue is based on an etching by Arthur Briscoe, who drew the Brixham fishermen at work in the early 1900’s from the decks, and will be sculpted by Elisabeth Hadley also of Brixham. The statue is destined for the King’s Quay where it will be seen from the inner harbour and by returning vessels

Homes in Zimbabwe was established in 2004 to provide funds for the maintenance of Old People's Homes in Zimbabwe. The homes then were in serious need of help on account of the economic decline and high inflation that had completely eroded their financial reserves. Today we have had to divert almost all our resources to supplying food and fuel to safeguard the very lives of the elderly of all races living in residential homes and many still living at home often alone.. The local currency is now worthless removing any buying power from all local pensions, and although food is now available, it is priced in US$'s - a currency out of reach to most pensioners.
