Marine Conservation Zones step closer nr Deal-Dover

From Kent Wildlife Trust

Marine Conservation Zones
February brought the encouraging news that three more Kent sites are on Defra’s candidate list for the second tranche of Marine Conservation Zone designations, due to be made in 2015.

Kent Wildlife Trust has strong links with each of these sites: The Swale recommended MCZ, adjacent to where we manage land. Dover to Deal and Dover to Folkestone - two sites below Dover’s white cliffs, where our Shoresearch and Seasearch volunteers have collected significant amounts of data to support designation.

These sites will need your support to ensure they make it through the consultation process to designation and protection.

Please contact bryony.chapman@kentwildlife.org.uk if you would like to become a ‘Friend’ of these sites and receive updates on how to help. Click here for more information   Crab Bay © Bryony Chapman
