Staff led activities throughout April
You did it!
Thank you for taking part in our Citizen Science Month challenge – you're now a citizen scientist!
You’ve done something amazing for our ocean and contributed to scientific research that will create real change. Together with volunteers around the UK, your effort expands scientific knowledge and provides evidence which we can use to campaign for change to better protect our ocean.
Now that you know how easy it is to get involved, why not try another activity? You can take part in any of our volunteering activities all year round.
