Ocean Guardians
Become an Ocean Guardian & Protect Cornwall’s Oceans
Cornwall’s oceans are in trouble. Our coastal waters are home to some of the most loved and endangered species, from vibrant marine life like seals and dolphins to important habitats like seagrass meadows and mearl. The ocean is what makes Cornwall special, and its health impacts everyone who lives, works, or visits here. From our local fishing industry to hospitality businesses, restaurants, and everyone in between.
A healthy ocean is crucial for Cornwall’s economy, its people, and the wildlife that depends on it. It’s not just about fish; it’s about our communities’ well-being, mental health, and the opportunity to connect with nature. Protecting Cornwall’s oceans benefits everyone.
''Supporting Cornwall Wildlife Trust as Ocean Guardians has been brilliant. It’s wonderful to support a project that works to understand and protect the Cornish marine environment that we, as a team, all love and enjoy so much. The Cornwall Wildlife Trust marine team are amazing and it’s given us a great focus for our company team days.’'Marraum
