OUR FUNDRAISING OBJECTIVES
In our many projects around the British Isles, Blue Marine is delivering ambitious conservation initiatives that include restoring threatened habitats and species, and establishing low-impact, sustainable fisheries that benefit both marine life and local communities.
These projects also inform our policy and legal interventions to urge the UK government to better protect and manage its waters. From keeping Sussex kelp safe, to oyster restoration on the Blackwater River, and exploring the conservation potential of offshore wind turbines, you can discover the full stories behind Blue Marine’s dynamic UK work in the pages devoted to each individual project.
