Living Seas; the North Sea Marine Protected Area Project

What picture does ‘Living Seas’ conjure up in your mind? A rocky reef bursting with brightly coloured fish; corals and sponges? A boat trip in the company of leaping dolphins and playful seals? Fishermen hauling nets brimming with big; tasty fish?

Living Seas are all these things and more. We urgently need your help to bring back the UK’s Living Seas. This project focuses mainly on the English North Sea; from Northumberland down to Suffolk and 200 nautical miles out to sea.
