Three Peaks Challenge
Fundraising for Captain Paul Watson Foundation UK
Story
On the 3rd and 4th November we will be undertaking the National 3 Peaks Challenge! With all money raised going towards the £2000 needed for the Ghost Net Campaign licence to remove nets from North Wales!
Once lost or discarded, sections of fishing net and other fishing equipment can drift through the ocean or be left snagged on wrecks, rocks and reefs indiscriminately killing marine wildlife for decades.
Sea Shepherd UK’s Ghostnet Campaign will utilise our own highly experienced volunteer divers and our UK fleet of four Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats (RHIBs) to survey sections of the UK’s coastline and recover as many nets and other lost gear as possible. Surveys have already been conducted around North Wales and the campaign will be rolled out into other areas as the appropriate permits for ghost gear retrieval have been granted to Sea Shepherd UK.
