Seas in Crisis

Marine Appeal

For centuries we have taken the seas’ riches for granted, taking too much with too little care. Fragile habitats have been destroyed, whether ripped up by fishing gear or destroyed by industry. Less than a thousandth of 1% (0.001%) of the UK’s sea area is fully protected from all damaging activities. Fish stocks have collapsed and marine resources are depleted.

Please will you to help us

We need to continue the fight to save our Living Seas. We need to continue the work we’ve been doing to get us this far - lobbying Government, talking to fishermen and industry, holding events, campaigning to the public, surveying and monitoring our marine wildlife, educating children.

We need £35,000 to press on to pursue our goal of protecting these vital species and habitats, whilst allowing sustainable activity in the seas to continue. Please help us by making a donation so that we can persevere.

Thank you so much for your support

Should the Seas in Crisis Appeal raise more than the target, we would use the extra funds to carry out further conservation work in Sussex.
