NEW: A bill to ban bottom trawling in marine protected areas has been successful in the Lords Private Members Bill ballot 🚫
Last year, UK offshore MPAs underwent +33,000 hours of suspected bottom trawling. It's not good enough! We must get this vital bill passed into law NOW 🌊
So you get it, a lot of people are talking about how scientists just found out that those boring deep-sea rocks mining corporations want to exploit and make money from are making oxygen

We are thrilled to welcome TWO fantastic new members of our Trustee team - Penny Nelson and Lois Calder.
Both will help to oversee governance/strategic direction and support our board members with marine conservation grant assessment and allocation.
Welcome to the team 👏
School's out!☀️
A huge THANKYOU to all the teachers, support workers, and parents for an amazing year.
We absolutely love supporting children to participate in coastal conservation projects from beach cleans to seagrass workshops - keep up the good work!
