Rescues & Boats

Open Arms has saved thousands of lives, as evidenced by the rescues conducted by their fleet of boats.

We are exclusively supporting a subdivision of the Barcelona-based NGO Open Arms. 

Open Arms’ primary mission is to protect the lives of the most vulnerable in emergency situations. We originate from a sea rescue company with over 20 years of experience on the Spanish coasts.

Open Arms is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation with one principal mission: to protect those who try to reach Europe by sea and inform and educate on land so that those who migrate can make decisions with complete freedom and knowledge.

Their intention is to monitor and rescue vessels carrying people who need help in the Mediterranean channel, protect the lives of the most vulnerable in emergency situations on land, and build alternatives to irregular migration in countries such as Senegal, providing people with resources through community awareness and information. In parallel, they continue to denounce all of the injustices that take place that nobody talks about.

On land, they are also equipped with an essential team: a group of psychologists who specialise in crisis situations, emergencies, and victims of terrorism. In addition, they support those who participate in missions before, during, and after them.

They offer the psychological support required in order to help manage the situations these people have experienced, prevent the appearance of post-traumatic stress and help them return to ordinary life while guaranteeing emotional stability for future interventions.

Open Arms also carries out educational work in schools and with young people to generate empathy and critical thought among the youngest generation. This is to create a society that is critical of inequality and fights for a more fair and just world.
