The Marine Conservation Society

The Marine Conservation Society is a leading UK environmental charity dedicated to protecting our ocean. 

We drive political and social change through people-powered action. We unite communities, businesses and governments and champion science-based solutions. 

For more than 40 years, we have been defending crucial habitats, regenerating vital ecosystems, and inspiring volunteers. 

A healthy ocean is fundamental to tackling the nature and climate emergency. 

  • We fight pollution – finding solutions to stop pollution at its source, protecting us and wildlife by ending sewage and harmful chemicals reaching our seas for good. 
  • We regenerate our ocean – working together with communities to create local marine havens and support the return and growth of vital species to help seas flourish. 
  • We promote effective ocean management – steering investment into our seas, guiding how we use our ocean and advocating for marine-friendly practices. 

Together, we can create cleaner, healthier seas for people and planet.
