Activities across different sessions may include:

- Guided walks
Each session will last for two hours.
Sunday 8 March 2026 Workshop Overview - Marine Litter
Join us for an action-packed morning uncovering the hidden story of marine litter – where it comes from, how it affects ocean life, and what we can do to stop it. During this session, you’ll learn how different types of litter impact marine ecosystems, discover surprising facts about plastics and microplastics up and head out for a community litter pick, working together to clean up the shoreline and collect data on what we find.
