Excellent News from
Fauna and Flora International
We were selected for Capacity Training by Fauna and Flora International which means that several nice things are happening now including receiving funding so far for more training of our team, better signage for our events, and good software to do our accounts.
We are very grateful to Ceris of Fauna and Flora International for helping us sharpen up our act, this means that we will be working with many more community groups to mentor and support them to do their own beach cleans. The groups we have worked with so far have been very successful. Please contact us at hello@cleancoastoh.com to discuss how we can support your community group.
RSPB Nature of Scotland Award Ceremony
Clean Coast Outer Hebrides is a member of the Scottish Islands Federation Marine Litter Working Group, which was a finalist from over a hundred applicants at the RSPB Nature of Scotland Award at the end of November in Edinburgh under the Coasts and Waters category this was the first time that SIF MLWG had applied and were delighted to have made the top five. From left to right: Catherine Gemmel: Marine Conservation Society, the sponsor, Catriona Spink: Tiree, our own Janet Marshall: Chair, CCOH, and Camille Dressler: Chair, Scottish Island Federation. We wanted to take this lovely Highland Coo made by Vicki Last of SIF to the event, but the organisers said no.
