You can make a difference by supporting our campaigns to protect marine wildlife

Sign our petition - protect UK seas

The Wildlife Trusts are asking the Government to create Highly Protected Marine Reserves to protect important marine habitats and wildlife. Fishing, dredging and all damaging activities would be prohibited in these areas. Eco-tourism and leisure activities would continue, and would be managed so as not to disturb the wildlife.

Support the petition below and tell the Government that you want better protection for our seas.

Dear Mr Bradshaw,

It is critical that you include in the Marine Bill a system specifically for creating Highly Protected Marine Reserves.

Please complete all boxes.
