Black Friday is everywhere today - inboxes full, ads on every screen, urging us to buy more. But behind the discounts lies a bigger cost: the pressure to consume endlessly, and the growing impact that has on our planet and our oceans.

🛑 Today is Buy Nothing Day - a global movement encouraging us to pause, reflect, and rethink what we buy. It’s a gentle protest against overconsumption - reminding us that every purchase we make has an impact on our planet 🌎.

Right now, the MMO is consulting on banning bottom trawling in offshore Marine Protected Areas. If adopted, protection here could rise from just 3% to over 20% – a huge win for marine life! 🗓️ Have your say before 29 Sept 2025: Take action now! action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/171084/...

Ban Bottom Trawling in Marine Protected Areas

Ban bottom trawling by emailing Minister Hardy with your thoughts.

🦪✨ 6,496 fewer gatecrashers on our shores! Our latest Pacific oyster survey is complete. These shellfish may look innocent, but they can crowd out native species and reshape our rocky shores. Huge thanks to our amazing volunteers for their eagle eyes (and strong backs!)

Among the seaweed and salt spray, there’s a hidden world waiting to be discovered - but only if you take the time to slow down and look. 🐚🌊 Rockpooling invites you to pause, to observe, and to reconnect with nature. #rockpool #cornwall

We had a lovely time at the seaweed pressing workshop last weekend 🌊🌿 A few of us from the committee headed to the Princess Pavilion Café to try out the seaweed press and get a bit creative! We only took a small amount from the strandline + returned anything we didn’t use. Such a wholesome day.
