Talking to politicians about nature and climate
Over half of all Members of Parliament (MPs) who were elected in the 2024 General Election were new to the role. This means there are a lot of new decision-makers who haven't yet got much experience of the climate and nature issues that you care about. That means now is the perfect time to meet your representatives in person to start that relationship.

Seagrass Ocean Rescue
The UK has lost up to 90% of its seagrass meadows in the past century, which has had negative consequences for the health and resilience of our coastal systems. In 2019, Swansea University, the charity Project Seagrass and WWF-UK formed a collaboration to begin to restore some of what we have lost. Concurrently, over the last six years Swansea University has been leading trials across Wales to develop appropriate methods for seagrass restoration. Here in North Wales, we've now teamed up with the partnership to start exploring how we can bring this exciting project to North Wales. Funding secured from the National Lottery Heritage Fund allows us to deliver a socially agreeable and ecologically sound programme of restoration and we want you to get involved.
