Glasgow Humane Society (GHS) operates from a boathouse alongside the River Clyde, in the grounds of Glasgow Green park, the site of the People's Palace, in the east end of the city of Glasgow, Scotland.
The independent search and rescue (SAR) service was established in 1790.
The service currently operates a Whaly 500 rescue boat, with a unique fold-down bow for ease of casualty recovery, on station since 2021.
Glasgow Humane Society is a registered charity (No. SC001178).
