Safeguard Our Seas











We need your help to safeguard our seas

Deadline 24th April 2015


There's not long left to add your voice to the consultation

The Government has just opened a public consultation on a second round of areas that are being considered as Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs). We are extremely disappointed that just two of these are in the Irish Sea (off the Cumbrian coast) and five other important sites have been dropped.

The Government is now at risk of failing to achieve its aim of creating a network of nature reserves at sea. It will also delay the desperately needed protection of these areas for years to come.


Save our seas with a letter

Simply write a short letter to the Government with your thoughts and memories about our seas, coast and wildlife – the more personal you can make it the better. Last time it was the personal letters that really made a difference.

Whether you have fond memories of rockpooling in the coast as a child, walking your dog along the beach with your family, angling from a boat, or you feel the marine wildlife that we have off our coast is special in some way, it can all make a difference.

Now is your chance to have your say and influence the Government’s decision.

Send your personal letter to:

MCZ Team, c/o Post Room
Nobel House
17 Smith Square
London
SW1P 3JR

or simply fill in our easy online response form.
