Speaking up for our seas at UK party conferences
Our Parliamentary Affairs team will be making waves at this year’s political party conferences.
The team will be attending five major conferences- Labour, Liberal Democrat, Conservative, Plaid Cymru and SNP- to press for stronger action to protect our ocean and sustainably manage our seas. With the May 2026 elections in Scotland and Wales fast approaching, protecting our ocean must be a political priority.
What will we be talking about?
We will be pushing parliamentarians to:
- Tackle threats to the health of our seas by banning the use of PFAS ‘forever chemicals’ in all consumer products
- Support the introduction of a Marine Spatial Prioritisation Plan to achieve the best economic, climate and nature outcomes for our ocean,
- Co-create a Sustainable Blue Economy Strategy with coastal communities to support the shift towards a sustainable blue economy that regenerates our seas
