After the excitement at the Nature of Scotland Awards, Janis and Noel went to Oban for the Hebridean Whale and Dolphin Trust tour operators meet up at The Scottish Association for Marine Science (somewhere we all love at USS and are looking to maybe put on a wee road trip again next year....).

Calm weather, sensible tides and a few hours of daylight meant ideal conditons for hauling in some of the rubbish washed up in the recent gales. Amongst the usual debris, a metal water bottle made a nice change from all the plastic ones...also glad to get a few buoys back to their boats -

Fantastic conditions yesterday for boat trips to consolidate and build on everything we have been learning during our amazing Knowledge Building for Blue Learning series with Noel!

We've had a fun week sharing the story of our #NatureOfScotland Youth Action Award with the rest of the team! 

Moments from an unforgettable night!! just incredible - such an honour to meet so many other people and groups doing amazing work to support our nature and wildlife.

So incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us to get to this point - especially The National Lottery Heritage Fund Scotland for supporting our Love Our Seas project.
