Now we’re properly into winter, we’re expecting to see less living on shore, especially in terms of some algae. This month we tried a different approach with our volunteers and were rewarded…

We had three more shore visits in July ahead of the school holiday rush and just leaking into the heatwave hitting the UK. These heatwaves are caused by Climate Change a massive global challenge,…

Just three visits to shores with our Shoresearch teams this month. Our have-a-go sessions will renew in September.

The lowest Spring tides of the year can reveal areas of the shore very sensitive to footfall. Care was taken as we accessed areas full of worm tubes, anemones, breeding slugs and luscious red…

In July the shores visited were, again all within wider protection areas, rather than at ones where the intertidal area is a feature. The first being our own Nature reserve at Cemlyn.

In June we visited a couple of areas of shore which are not within a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) covering the intertidal area, but which are part of wider areas of protection.

After a brief gap in August we carried out several Shoresearches in September as well as completing our first public have-a-go session.
